This is Prospect Park right now.

Immigrants DEFINITELY make our cities, our communities and society so much richer and better.

Never let ‘em say otherwise.

Sometimes, when I am working from home, I get this eerie feeling behind me.

I turn around and this is what I see. He’s just standing there at the doorway.

Watching me.

What a weirdo.

How to bring a bit of 🇨🇦 to our place in Queens ?

Pluck a « weed » out of the lawn and grow our own red maple.

One of my grad students is measuring seed set of skunk cabbage fruits along NYC’s urban gradient. Today, we found out that the inside of a skunk cabbage fruit kind of looks like a pomegranate !

The more I learn about these odd little plants, the more I ❤️ them.
