1923; 1933

Manhattan: Central Park - The Pond.

(1) Central Park, the Pond: the pedestrian bridge, looking west. Because of the dense foliage, Central Park West cannot be seen. In the foreground is a mother duck with her brood. 1923. P. L. Sperr. (2) The same, with Central Park West apartment houses in the background. Two wild ducks swim in the foreground; perhaps they are lineal descendants of the babies shown in No. 1. May 15, 1933. P. L. Sperr. (3) The same. One of the swans may be seen under the arch of the bridge. May 15, 1933. P. L. Sperr.
