The park via Sackett Street

 

St Agnes Church on Sackett Street.

 

And chimneys.

 

And....a black stair carpet?

 

And fall camellias (the temperatures dipped below freezing last night).

 

And a view from the Gowanus - razor wire, weed trees (ailanthus), water towers like gun turrets on the Gowanus Houses.

 

In Prospect Park: our friends, the solitary men. Brisk trade on a cold Sunday, despite leafless trees.

 

And overflowing trash cans in the eastern woods. The ones on the main paths seemed recently emptied.

 

And oyster mushrooms...

 

The ones above are babies. We left them.

 

Not yet identified.

 

Ever-present witch hazel. We saw two mature red tailed hawks, flying from tree to tree. They were big and beautiful.
