Getting a book review from the New York Times is a dream come true for us and a testament to how much Flaco meant to so many. The review (link below) includes some fun stories we haven’t shared before.
This morning @davidlei and I received an early Christmas present — a lovely book review by Elisabeth Egan at the New York Times Book Review (link below). We’re grateful for the enthusiastic and heartwarming words of support readers have shared with us. Happy Holidays!

Central Park coyotes trotting along a path this past spring. I got lucky when the pair decided to pause long enough so I could capture them in the same frame. This photo appears in an article David Lei and I wrote for Smithsonian Magazine. Link below. #birdcpp #wildlife
@davidlei and I wrote an essay about the Central Park coyotes for @smithsonianmagazine that celebrates these canids and explores why they haven’t been successful in raising pups. We’re hopeful that they’ll continue to thrive in the park. (Link below.)
A pair of coyotes named Romeo and Juliet have made their home in the giant green space in the middle of New York City. Photographers @davidlei and @jacquelineUWS have tracked their secret lives. bit.ly/4epDLOM
