Higgins in 8 PM EST interview says:
Both pilots saw birds at at time of impact. They covered the windscreen.
FO was flying; Pilot said "My Plane"; FO said "Your Plane".
FO used checklist to try restart.
Pilot radioed LGA, "too far, too low, too many buildings".
TEB, 'not familiar, too far, congested area' "Its the Hudson"
