Came and perched in Cloisters while various LJ ppl had lunch together. Funny looking creatures and not exactly city dwellers.

How wodnerful! There is a family of them near the creek where i walk my dog, and it can be so hard to spot them when they do their "i'm a bit of a tree" impersonation.

We were kinda excited, this wasn't exactly camouflaged!

I even found an mp3 of that lovely soft call they make.
