Great fall migration day

A good number of Central Park's  "Big Gun"  birdwatchers were among yesterday's observers, as well as a great photographer, Cal Voernberger. His great new book, The Birds of Central Park, is now available for order on Amazon.com, or BN.com, and should hit the bookstores any day.
