New York museums and sights

Here's a quick snapshot of some of the things Cyndi and I saw and did while we were in New York City in October 2012.

The bronze bull on Wall Street.

One of four statues outside the Museum of the American Indian.

A butterfly inside the Natural History Museum.  The exhibit was filled with live butterflies of all shapes, sizes and colors.

The arch at Washington Square Park, on a rainy night.

A sarcophagus at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Butterflies in February

I just had the pleasure of visiting the Everglades National Park.



I was up before the sunrise every day.



The temperature was between 76 and 86 degrees during the day and fell to a cool 68 at night. I watched the sun set,



and sometimes even wandered in the moonlight.



I'm sure some of you fear the onslaught of bird photos ... and that's why I went there ... to see birds. So, just to be unpredictable (and not so obsessed with avian species), here is a sampling of what I saw.
