Show Wed/Thurs/Fri, June 5-7, 2013 C-5 The Park Record Continued From C-2 PUZZLE ANSWERS FROM PAGE C-4 Kimball will give Art Talk birders in New York City, aren't what most people think birders are. "One of the stereotypes of birders is that they are middle-aged and white," Kimball said. "New York City is not like that. It's a multi-cultured and multi-faceted place, and the film nicely reflects that as well, when it comes to the birding community. "There was quite a wealth of characters to choose from, and I left a lot of them on the editing floor," he said. "But I did want to show the different types of people of all ages who are in the community. In doing so, I tried to show a cross-section of New York City." One of the surprises Kimball found was the different ages in the group. "I interviewed everyone from a teenager to a woman in her 70s, who had been a birder for 50 years," he said. The other surprise was realizing that Central Park is a manufactured wildlife refuge. "I kind of knew this, but didn't embrace it," he said. "I mean, when Central Park started out, the only thing that was in place naturally, were the boulders that were left when the last glacier came through. And even those were apparently moved around." Everything else - the waterways, the streams, the waterfalls the forest and trees - were all completely built or planted by human beings. "Even the streams are fed by the New York City water supply and are turned on by a switch," he said. "But it's been about 160 years since it was built, so you can say it's fake, but contains real nature. "The birds are real," he said. "The bugs are real, the raccoons and the turtles that live in the ponds are real, because people would drop off their pet turtles when they couldn't keep them." Kimball said he is looking forward to coming back to Park City this week. "I'm thrilled to return to Kimball Art Center," he said. "I was there when my father had the idea of turning that garage into an art center, and I came back for the dedication and have been back a number of times for the Sundance Film Festival. "When I did come back, I would always make a point in going in to see what was happening and I've had friends who had shows there," Kimball said. "So, it's great to be able to present there. I wish I could tell my father I was doing this, but maybe he'll figure it out somehow." Filmmaker Jeffrey Kimball will present the free Art Talk at the Kimball Art Center, 638 Main St., on Thursday, June 6, Photos courtesy of other noises The Northern Flicker, top, recognized by its crimson head feathers, is one of the many species of birds that stop at Centeral Park in New York City as they migrate up the Eastern seaboard.
