The birdmen of Hong Kong





When I read the post by Steve on "Ship Notes" about the birdmen in Honk Kong, I couldn't quite figure out why something about it rang a bell, since I have never been to China.

It took me a while, but eventually I found out why.
Steve didn't have to take a slow boat to China to see the birdmen. All he had to do was take a stroll down Delancey Street in New York City!

(to be honest I think that the ones I saw were somewhere in Flushing) Still....

...New York - New York! - it's a wonderful town...

Especially Central Park in the Fall.
