At twilight the peacock flew over the fence of the Prospect Park Zoo 🦚 I often see a peacock or two in late April fly over the boundary they lived in all winter 🦚 #peacock #prospectparkzoo #brooklyn
Spread Empathy ✨Message seen on Flatbush, Brooklyn #empathy #brooklyn #mzicar #fokus
Listen to “loved” on the Cherry Esplanade at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. A sound installation by Michael Gordon in remembrance of who we lost during the pandemic. 🌸 #loved #brooklynbotanicgarden #memorial #michaelgordon #cherryblossom
Life this week among the Magnolia blossoms 🌸 #brooklyn #prospectpark #magnolia
Under the cherry trees as the blossoms fall 🌸 #prospectpark #brooklyn #cherryblossom
One year later and the memorials are scattered throughout Prospect Park #memorial #prospectpark #brooklyn
Somewhere hidden in the pink, a cardinal feasted on the cherry blossoms 🌸
Yesterday everywhere you looked was Spring Yellow 💛🌼☀️ #yo #spring #yellow #forsythia #daffodils #brooklyn
Last November I wrote in my journal a question about the future: “Will I see a wild rabbit next year?” I hadn’t seen a cottontail in Prospect Park for a decade, no matter how many times I visited the places I spotted them years before. Imagine the rush of triumph to see not one - but TWO - wild rabbits on Friday. (Photo of just one) 🐰🐰🎉✨🌱 #prospectpark #brooklyn #cottontail #2021goals
