#bird-houses – Walk with Me, Too

Indulge me

Please. I took a little walk today. I do most days. Let me share some artifacts of the streets I traveled:

1.The elephant pays tribute to the memory of my mom; that’s a fitting symbol as in “the elephant never forgets.” 2.Cranes capture my imagination whenever I spot them. 3.I coveted this table; it would have come into my overcrowded home had I the means to schlep it. 4 through 8. As he passed me photographing these, the man asked “did you see a bird in there?”

Birdhouse dujour

It’s an ongoing neighborhood decorative project.

The birdhouse project

If I were a serious journalist, I would march into the storefront, where I saw these stored and investigate.

Instead, I speculate. And photograph.

Located on 81st between York and 1st, but with outposts on other neighboring blocks, this is clearly an ongoing endeavor.

The appeal is real

It took will power.

I walked down the whole block without snapping a single shot.

Favorites in order

Creativity once it’s unlocked cannot be shut up again.

I have never posted these tree houses before because they are from the other side of the street. It seems I had not walked this side until this hot oppressive morning.

The “creativity” I refer to, by the way, is of the designer of these birdhouses. I also note that some of these are not big enough to actually house a bird.
