If you’ve ever driven through Malba, you’ll recognize this old weeping willow. She was a grand sight to see, unfortunately, the last couple of years have been hard on her, and she won’t be around for much longer …
We have a new black squirrel making the rounds in the yard …
Spotted a cicada up a tree. Yup, don’t know how I did it, but I managed to spot this critter from over 30 feet away …
ATOP THE WASHINGTON MONUMENT, ARE DISPLAYED TWO WORDS: Laus Deo. Just in case you may not have known… One detail that is seldom mentioned is that in Washington, D.C. there can never be a building of greater height than the Washington Monument. With all the uproar about removing […]

Say hello to Tikki and Plagg. These are 2 new Pez dispensers that join Ladybug and Cat Noir from the European Miraculous Pez series. Slick new additions to the Pez collection, and museum …
Spotted this Cormorant snacking on a fairly large fish @the Jetty. You had to see it juggle and get it down it’s gullet. When it was finished, it hopped up on a pylon, and then started airing it all out …
The cicada invasion has started. They’ve been making a racket, and I already spotted a empty casing on my brick steps. Should be spotting live ones if they stay low on the trees …
I saw on the news this morning, that Barney, that roaming lone bull still hasn’t been captured. Well, guess what. Checking me trail camera for the backyard critters, and instead of cats, coons, or possum, this time, it seems Barney visited our yard. I suppose word is out, […]
It’s the possum’s turn to roam the yard. 25 x 100 property, and it’s like the Bronx Zoo back there …
Here’s a good set of captures of a Snowy Egret enjoying some snacks @the Jetty. I even have shots of him catching the crab, and tossing it into it’s own mouth. He don’t need no stinking hands …
We have a leucistic Canada goose @the Jetty that visits each year. It’s the only one I’ve ever spotted. I did some research, and it could also be a leucistic Graylag goose. I ain’t not botanist, so I’m just happy to have spotted it …
Now that weed is legal in NYC, everyone is outdoors toking freely … We even spotted NF25 chilling with his homies @the Jetty, smoking a few joints. And, they had Marley blasting “don’t worry, be happy…” – I don’t think the million dollar neighbors are too happy …
We never got the heavy storm they predicted, but we did get a rainbow over the Point, which later on led to a nice moon view as it was setting … 🌈 🌙
Kemosabe, maize grow big. We have 4 ears now growing quite well, and one of them looks nearly ready for harvest. According to google, once the silk turns brown, it can be harvested. The bigger one is just about there … 🌽🌽🌽🌽
Spotted these Terns dive bombing, and fishing for lunch @PCP in the cove. And if you look closely, one of them dropped their catch .,..
Spotted this Monarch butterfly in our front tree. We’re growing fennel, so hopefully, we’ll be back breeding butterflies by next summer …
I bought meself a trail camera. I wanted to see how these aminals were going about knocking over the birdbath fountain. I caught 3 raccoons rolling in, and having a ball with the fountain, and bucket of water …
And just like that, Noodles is 30 years old. For us it’s just a blink of the eye, our wonderful, handsome, and loving nephew Noodles reaches another milestone birthday, and has become a fellow real estate tax contributor, as he and his queen buy a house. We wish […]
Our Johnny, FjL stopped by to see his momma. And while he was here, I got him a Dick Dastardly Pop! Pez to go with his slick ‘stache. And he’s working on adding new ink to his body …
Spotted this Juvenile Black-crowned Night Heron @PCP park, it’s a long shot, but kinda cool none the less. You don’t spot juveniles often …
Happy Birthday to our wonderful grandson, DrL. He turns 6 and celebrates with his first lost tooth. And what kid doesn’t just love getting Pez for a birthday gift. We hope your party was a blast, and everyone had lots of fun. We love you kid … 🎂 […]
You know things are bad in Manhattan when we have to send HjL to stand watch at the Perch. But wait. Check that door handle behind her. Is it missing an acorn ? Funny, I got the same acorn… #StrikeAPose
The rats at the Jetty are running rampant. They may be multi-million dollar homes, beautiful waterfront property, cool view of the bridge, BUT. Between the hundreds of geese crapping all over their lawns, and the rats that run rampant, I gotta believe the homeowners at the jetty ain’t […]
Kemosabe , we have maize to trade. Most people just grow weed these days. But, you can’t eat weed. We have no idea how, or why, but we have corn growing in the front garden. Must be from something the cats pooped out. Either way, there’s a few […]
This Monarch butterfly decided to end it’s short life on our picnic table. I spotted it as I was working in the yard. I like to think that he knew if he landed there, he won’t become a bird snack. So, now he is added to our neat […]
Is it a twig, or a caterpillar ? Spotted this twig mimic caterpillar hanging from our tree. It will eventually become a peppered moth … Gotta love nature …
Visited our AJ & UD, and they’re housing a black-capped chickadee in their birdhouse. Also great to see Momma, and my sister’s family (and look how happy KaH is …) ♥♥♥ #family
It’s a boy… And it may be our one and only this season. We ain’t gots no more fennel, and I ain’t spotted any more eggs (cause we ain’t gots no more fennel …) … 🦋
