Troiku – Autumn

Posted on by jazzytower

autumn gusts

swirling cloud of colors

tucked in autumns chill

……………………………………….

autumn gusts

the earth takes a turn

a time of renewal

……………………………………..

swirling cloud of colors

alive in the autumn sun –

the rustle tells the tale

……………………………………….

tucked in autumns chill

a gaggle of geese takes flight

squirrels run here, then there

Spring

Posted on by jazzytower

I went for a walk today. The park is still snow layden, white, crisp and has yet to be walked upon. Further down, before I came upon this scene there were lots of geese walking in a line. It seems they were taking care not to walk on the snow. Or maybe they were just foraging. It was odd to see.. a waddling line of geese.

Echoes of my Neighborhood

Posted on by jazzytower

Yesterday, I went walking at the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens.  Everything has sprung!! I came upon this show at the lilly pond where there was a visitor.

The attendant said there’s usually two of them that visit every day.

image

And that they didn’t live there

image

It was amazing to watch!!

image

image

He put on quite a show. The odd thing was, he stayed right between these two lilly pads. Even with all his antics!!
image

He said a harty goodbye before taking flight.

Echoes of my Neighborhood

I had to pull over to get this photo of these cherry blossoms through a mesh fence. They are all over the city. Everything is blooming. Spring at last!! These buildings are very well kept as are the grounds. Some have water view, some views of Manhattan and the bridge to Staten Island..

The geese are back, they were hanging out in the circle at the roundabout. Lots and lots of them!!

image

These gulls were at the parking lot of the mall. They were salivating over something. I think someone was feeding them.

That is my neighborhood for this week, enjoy. And a good week to all.
