But the ducks still love it.
(You can see College Point, where I walked yesterday, across Flushing Bay.)
Day 15
It’s not the most pristine waterfront
January 14th, 2012
I'm walking every street in New York City.
This is the counterpoint to my walk across the US. Instead of seeing a million places for just a minute each, I'm going to spend a million minutes exploring just one place. By the time I finish walking every block of every street in all five boroughs, I'll have traveled more than 8,000 miles on foot — all within a single city. Details!

Your donations allow me to keep walking full-time. If you think what I'm doing is valuable and you'd like to offer some support, I would be very grateful. On the other hand, if you think I'm a worthless bum, feel free to email me and tell me to get a job, bozo. Both are excellent options!
Quack quack! exactly what do they flush in flushing bay?
You’re too funny, Dorinda.
Do you really want to know the answer to that question? LOL
Background on NYC Flushing:

This one talks about the one in the Netherlands, and how the name came about for it, and the one in NYC.

interesting mix of species…usual mallards, but the contrasty ones appear to be Canvasbacks? Might be some Scaup in there too? Didn’;t realize there were so many species in the urban setting.
