If you're on the lookout for feathered friends in Central Park, we happen to know of a large blue bird "flying" nearby. 😉. #MetAlexDaCorte.#CantorRoof
So many beautiful birds are stopping by Central Park this spring! But this is no flight of fancy. They are migratory marvels, flying thousands of miles from their southern wintering grounds to NYC and beyond. Learn more about the wonder of bird migration:
