Water Tower

I photographed this water tank this morning from my kitchen window. I don’t suppose it is dificult for you to guess what I did to this image?

My husband, Marc Felix, was conceived in an apartment in this building in 1945. Soon after that his family moved to Horatio Street.

I included a hidden door for fun.

I was intrigued by the little yellow tufts on one berry on this bush. I did a search and came up with Cedar-hawthorn Rust (Crataegus).

No more Govenors Island for a while — the last post of #OPTIC2019. Common terns nest on one of the piers there.
