Marine Park Mix

I photographed these by the Salt Marsh Nature Center in Marine Park, Brooklyn.

Marine Park

Marine Park in Brooklyn was the third place we stopped at during the LSNY field trip. We found our target bird, a Red-headed Woodpecker. The Hooded Mergansers were at the Salt Marsh nature Center at Marine Park.

Floyd Bennett Field

The second stop on Saturday’s LSNY trip was to Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn. The kestrel hovered in place over the meadow. You’ll have to take my word for it that the small lump in the tree is a Bald Eagle’s nest with the bird.

Entered into Bird of the Week at Gadwall, bird of the week – Don’t hold your breath (wordpress.com)

Chisholm SP

A Linnaean NY field trip on Saturday March 18. We spent all day at three locations along the shores of Brooklyn. The first stop was at Shirley Chisholm State Park. More to come…

The song sparrow who held on tight to a wildly swaying branch and the screaming oystercatchers made me laugh.

Framed Bridges

Post 8 of 8 in the Brooklyn Bridge Park series. I found many ways to frame the bridges.

Seaport and DUMBO Doors

Post 6 of 8. For Thursday Doors. The Seaport is in Manhattan, New York City. Brown and Co Stationers is by the 1626 East River low water mark. There are some old printing presses inside.

Dumbo, is an acronym for Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass, is a neighborhood in the New York City borough of Brooklyn. It encompasses two sections: one located between the Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridges, which connects Brooklyn to Manhattan across the East River, and another that continues east from the Manhattan Bridge to the Vinegar Hill area.

And DUMBO is in Brooklyn There are some fine old buildings inland above the Old Pier 1 on Middagh Street in Brooklyn. See MIDDAGH STREET, Brooklyn Heights – Forgotten New York (forgotten-ny.com).

Seaport and DUMBO

This is the first of 8 posts from a photoshoot I did on a Sierra Photo NYC outing with Charles and Carlos. We took the Ferry from Pier 11 south of Wall Street to Pier 1 in DUMBO Brooklyn and stayed until sunset.
