Bluebelt system comes to NYBG • Bronx Times

It may not sound like much, installing some new pipes, but to us it’s a priceless project. Part of New York City’s Department of Environmental Protection’s “Bluebelt” project, the new catch basins are keeping NYBG’s aquatic habitats cleaner, and making it safer for our fellow commuters on Southern Boulevard. Now that’s what I call a win-win! ~AR

It’s Friday afternoon. It’s summer. It’s hot out. Do you really need any additional reasons to spend one minute watching this chubby little muskrat gathering and storing duckweed in Twin Lakes? Didn’t think so. ~AR

The local muskrats have been busy, as has Pat Gonzalez, our local wildlife photog’ extraordinaire. They’re still just as adorable as in this shot, taken around this time last year. —MN deboracpq: IMG_4437 by Naturecamhd on Flickr.
