50 Bird Mark Reached! Day #38 of 2015

Today, I went skiing in Mount Vernon, New Jersey. The conditions were great and it was really fun. Anyway, on the way there, I saw a male Red-Breasted Merganser in the East River around 100 st. Since it is in New York County waters (it was between Manhattan and Randall's Island), it will count on my list as my 50th bird of the year. I always look in the river for ducks while I am traveling along it, just in case something shows up.
