Woodpecker – Tompkins Square Park
Thursday, April 5th, 2012
I’d heard this woodpecker several times before, and I was staring up at the trees for about 10 minutes before it was kindly pointed out to me by Loy a park birdwatcher. Sorry the video is a bit wobbly, but I had to zoom in all the way and I had no tripod.
Stanton Street Fire
Wednesday, March 28th, 2012
I heard many fire engines rushing east on East Houston street this morning. I went out to investigate. There was a serious fire in the housing project on Stanton Street between Pitt and Columbia Streets. I’d say it was about the 15th floor, higher than fire hoses can reach, but the fire department got in under control quickly. At least 4 apartments above the original fire were seriously damaged, probably more had water damage. A neighbor was saying that this is the third fire recently in the housing projects in the neighborhood.
Sparrows in a Holly Tree

La Plaza Cultural
Wednesday, February 29th, 2012
Marga Snyder of the community garden La Plaza Cultural gives the history of the garden from way back when it was a stream-crossed salt-marsh. It’s a large community garden in the East Village of New York City. It remains an open space today because the streams running beneath the landfill, make for poor building foundations.
