“When a peacock escaped from the Central Park Zoo on Tuesday, the photographer Landon Nordeman, a frequent contributor, happened to be in the neighborhood. Choosing not to defy any peacock stereotypes, the bird had settled into a posh building on the Upper East Side, 838 Fifth Avenue, in a fifth-floor ledge with a Park view. He may have been free from captivity, but was no less the object of gawking. While passers-by spent the day photographing the bird on the lam, Landon spent the day—from 11 A.M. until 10:30 P.M.—photographing them. (The bird outlasted them all, staying until 6:45 the next morning.)” From the newyorker.

    Only in NYC! One of the many reasons why I love that city. Nothing like this in the Bay / Shanghai.
