Something Different: Gray Catbird
Most different for me, aside from something new, is where I saw it.
Recently transitioning from southern swamps & marshes to urban jungle, this oasis with flowers & birds which enjoy them is... Central Park, NYC.
Called a "catbird" due to its "meow" cry, but it is a relative of the mockingbird, & will mimic other birds in addition to cats.
While trying to ID it, I came across this short vid with a sample of song:

New York City is home to 17 supertall towers measuring over 984 feet, the most of any metropolis.
Writer Eric P. Nash claims the towers alter the skyline but add little to the city's character.
Instead, he said, these towers are an ugly reflection of billionaires' social and political power..,#NYC..#oligarchs..

@kristenrapp @mdruker It's also only 9'7" tall. That would solve a lot of problems here in #ForestHills, with for example the Q23 taking a longer route due to not being able to clear some low (10'5") bridges.

Went to the city to see some beasts. Did not know that three fearful/enraged lemur could produce that much sound. People watching also fascinating. So many strollers. So many languages.
Had obligatory Happy the elephant discourse on animal rights.

More MOMA, this time some shots from the top floor "Signals"
show- a real mind melter. Im a Nam June Paik fan (loved seeing Zen for TV), but seeing these video pieces around media, "news", broadcasting and surveillance. If it didn't cost $25 per visit I would come back just to see the video show. Dara BirnBaum's intimate Tiananman square piece was well placed aside Julia Scher's Information America.

While some friends were in town I tagged along with them to MoMa which did not disappoint! I found myself stuck in this "Systems" room as my friends explored the rest of the floor. Excellent work and my favorite room in a host of good current shows there
So I gotta look more into the work of Kate Crawford and Andrew Norman Wilson. Tough concepts to illustrate and wrap your head around, but so relevant and super interesting to me.

Thin-sliced: I took a photo from this exact spot decades ago (KM, before digital film" OR social media). It got seen somehow (I think a gallery exhibit) & became a book cover.

The #NYC of my pre-teens is alive and well... on the walls of the Ontario Gallery of Art gift shop. Not complaining.
I’d like to live in #NYC but where do you live with three bedrooms and good schools that isn’t $4000/mo (and even that doesn’t actually seem possible)???
(And don’t say “New Jersey”; I need somewhere remotely livable…)

It's weird watching #NYC get an influx of refugees/immigrants and seemingly not giving a shit about building more housing.
At least #Seattle kind of gave a shit (#HALA in response to what was effectively Amazon employee numbers growth wasn't great, but it was better than nothing at all). But NYC is just like, "meh, whatevs."

Upon first spotting a dog 🐶 coming into the store. 🐱👀
Imagine running a government program so popular that demand outstrips supply by 50%, that *also* helps the city's poorest families and gives kids something to do during the boring summer months.. and deciding, "Nah, we don't need to continue this once federal funding runs out."
Parking your #suv in a #bikelane like this can often be an indicator of how little someone respects the safety of their neighbors. That’s definitely the case with this motorist. A quick check of their plates on howsmydriving.nyc reveals this person has 34 violations since 2021, including 24 school zone #speeding violations. How is this person still able to #drive in #NYC ? And why is the ticket for speeding in a #school zone only $50?!

New York Charter Schools Write Their Own Rules for When to Call 911 on Students Having a Mental Health Crisis

Families say Success Academy and other publicly funded but privately run schools are allowed to punish and discriminate against students by calling in emergency services.

The couple’s office says the pair and Meghan’s mother were followed for more than two hours by half a dozen vehicles after leaving a #NYC charity event. The chase “resulted in multiple near collisions involving other drivers on the road, pedestrians and two NYPD officers.”
