THURSDAY

THURSDAY. The weather was clear and sunny with yesterday being good as well the birds should be showing well. We met Bob the Birder at The Dock at Turtle Pond in Central Park. He knows this place and he knows his birds. We spent over three hours with some knowledgeable fellow birders that were very affable, helpful, enthusiastic and friendly. I will put the list on later with some of the better shots that Michelle was able to take. We had thirty first-timers – apparently referred to as ‘bimbos’ in Spain – as well as the ubiquitous House Sparrows and European Starlings.

Thursday evening was reserved for ‘Motown - The Musical’ that we saw in a wonderful theatre just off Broadway. Apparently ‘ the tune is in the groove’ but you may have heard on the grapevine!
There was great music, great songs with some great singers. This was Robbie’s choice while Yvonne toddled off to see Alan Cumming in a one and half hour version of Macbeth.
