Sunday Trees

This American elm in Tompkins Square was shedding its keys. In fact, all the elms in the area were doing so, so the streets looked like they were in a light snowfall.

Last night, walking down Van Brunt Street in Red Hook, I passed a red buckeye just past its full flowering. It was in a yard, one of the few trees along that stretch of Van Brunt. It's out of range according to my National Audubon Society Field Guide to Trees Eastern Region. Didn't have my camera in hand.
