4/26, Morningside Park

Sunday afternoon offered a couple of glimpses of Madeleine the hawk at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, but just glimpses.

But again, down the hill in Morningside Park, it was the egret and cormorant show at the pond.

The double-crested cormorant was making use of the turtle rock to dry off.

Morningside Cormorant - 9112

Morningside Cormorant - 9113

And the great egret was lurking in one of the willow trees on the island.

Morningside Egret - 9141

Morningside Egret - 9142

About the time I left to walk over to Central Park, the cormorant also departed while the egret jumped down to the water to do some fishing.
