The Bronx Zoo (also historically the Bronx Zoological Park and the Bronx Zoological Gardens) is a zoo within Bronx Park in the Bronx, New York. It is one of the largest zoos in the United States by area and is the largest metropolitan zoo in the United States by area,[5] comprising 265 acres (107 ha) of park lands and naturalistic habitats separated by the Bronx River.
Today, the Bronx Zoo is world-renowned for its large and diverse animal collection, and its award-winning exhibitions.[5] The zoo is part of an integrated system of four zoos and one aquarium managed by the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS), and it is accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA)
Note: my family had a visit to such a zoo. Oh boy! within 4 hrs there, we probably only covered half of it. The traffic in that area was so terrible.
This guy flew right up to the window in his enclosure and posed nicely for me.
I hope everyone enjoys this image! :D

Happy Bokeh Wednesday everyone! Hope your hump day starts off well!

Ground floor of the Yankees Stadium where the New York Yankees baseball team plays.The team is also nicknamed the Bronx Bombers because of the location (The Bronx,New York) where the team plays and the their focus on hitting (like bombs bursting in air:) home runs as part of their offensive strategy.The New York Yankees organization was founded in 1903.
This is a local tattoo shop in the Bronx that recently changed the artwork along the side of the building where it is located and without a doubt is one of the most impressive bits of street art I've seen in a while.
The Bronx - Whitestone Bridge has been on my bucket list for years, and I finally got to shoot it last weekend. Taken at "sunset" from Francis Lewis Park in Queens.

And the book is on the table and the phone is in the corner of the room.
Michael asked me if the glass was half full ...
Yes, my glass is empty
as the thoughts that ran out of my mind,
The sun that burned my skin
amplified the echo
of the white wine pouring down on my moments of solitude.
Am I alone, or is the world getting to be half empty?
Is it a game and who is it to blame?
God is mad ...
And I stayed there, staring at the phone,
not reading, surfing, drinking,
just empty,
as the thoughts that I had and I couldn't catch as it was burglarized by my brain,
and as hot as the Phoenician Sun, I felt no pain.
Everything seems to be empty
I hear half truth and I drink half glasses full of lies,
I don't know what to believe anymore
Is everything full, empty or just diluted?
I think outside of the box
some kids will get chicken pox, adults are scared to death...
I make no sense, it doesn't make any sense.
I'm leaving in the past tense,
or just tense, with uninterrupted news, metrics, analytics, craziness, graphs, and the weather report.
And the glass seats half full, because the other half evaporated like thin smoke, I think Michael that it just got polluted or diluted and while I can,
let me go collect my brain, scarred on the sidewalk, I cannot think straight today.
Maybe I drank to much water.
Is it full or half full or half empty?
I don't know.
Maybe I'll know tomorrow.
