Yesterday I was delighted to re-watch the: HBO documentary “Birders:The Central Park Effect,” in which Ms. Saphir was featured. Beautiful colorful birds, and a magnificient story. I wanted to meet her and take her tour, so tonight looked up her name in a Google search. Sadly for me, she has died. I hope another will take her place. RIP. http://www.nytimes.com/2013/02/10/nyregion/starr-saphir-bird-watching-guide-in-central-park-dies-at-73.html?_r=0
