If I am not away on a trip, Hamilton Park in New Jersey is where I try to head to on a “clear” night with a full moon. The park is at the top of a cliff overlooking mid-town Manhattan. The cliff provides the perspective I love, rather than being at river level. From this […]

The plumage is highlighted by a bright orange (rufous) foreneck and breast. This is irresistible to the females – the purpose of the exercise. Then after […]
