FAB FOTO FRIDAY
On any given day in The City you will see BLACK being worn everywhere. Every New Yorker has a closet full of black clothes and for all seasons. New Year‘s Day, which was a glorious sunny Sunday this year, was no exception…or was it??
"One and Twenty Blackbirds..."
BUT of course there are exceptions to every rule!!! Look at this fine feathered fellow showing off his “Sunday best”.
One Dapper Wood Duck
Not to mention this beautiful (YES, they are beautiful) Blue Jay who was hanging out nearby.
Big Beautiful Blue Jay
And way up high, taking in the view, sat a richly red Cardinal. Don’t you love his “mask”?
A Ruby Red Cardinal
However, if we had to vote for who was the most colorful denizen of Central Park on New Year’s Day, I think we’d have to admit the Wood Ducks took the prize!
hBest -Dressed Duck
Not everyone knew the photographer was in the park, but once they found out, everybody wanted their picture taken! Look at this guy!
"Hey, wait for me"!
