Starting out from Brooklyn, an amateur naturalist explores our world.

As John Burroughs said, “The place to observe nature is where you are.”

Autumn Equinox

At 5:05 a.m. (Eastern), the sun crosses the celestial equator and autumn begins. In NYC today, the sun rises exactly due east (6:36 a.m.) and sets exactly due west (6:44 p.m.).
This much larger-than-life image of a leaf is found at the 1 Train South Ferry subway station. Art for Transit by Doug & Mike Starn.
