Yellow-billed Cuckoo
by Laura Meyers on Sep.20, 2011, under Birds, Central Park
The picture of this Yellow-billed Cuckoo was taken in Central Park. The picture of this Yellow-billed Cuckoo was taken with the CANON EOS 7D and the CANON 100-400 lens and the CANON 580EXII flash.
The future of the Yellow-billed Cuckoo is uncertain. Populations are declining precipitously throughout its distribution.

Thanks for your comments Guy. I was happy to get this shot. It seems there were two Yellow-billed Cuckoos in Central Park last week. They are very shy and are heard more than they are seen.
