Nature Done Wright

Last year I wrote a "Bird Watcher" column about the amazing Audubon murals project in Upper Manhattan. 

Avi Gitler, the driving force behind the project, reports:

Attaching an image of a recent mural in Astoria Queens on the East River facing the U.E.S. and the FDR drive.

Two 4o-foot American Black Ducks!

We're at 111 bird species depicted on 80 (or so) murals.

Thanks, Avi!

I chose the column for inclusion in my new e-book featuring my favorite 10 columns over the past 10 years.

You can read the column in the ebook here and the whole e-book here.)
