Re:[nysbirds-l] Manhattan Evening Grosbeak, Riverside Park: Yes!! - Monday, 3/25
Seen at 1:30pm today by Christina Wilkinson; same area as my previous reports (though her views were from the opposite direction). Thanks Christina for letting me know :-) 100 days of solitude for this little guy; who could've predicted this back in December?!
