It's Groundhog Day, the day we're supposed to take advice from a rodent about whether to put away that winter coat or not. Seeing as how there are still mountains of frozen brown snow lining the streets, I'm just going to assume we should continue wearing boots and gloves.
But I will pay some respect to these critters because they manage to live among use here in the city and generally keep a low profile. They're not as visible as squirrels, raccoons or rats, so seeing one is a special experience and I'm always surprised at how big they are.
In Manhattan, Fort Tryon Park is a good place to spot one.
The ones below were seen in Brooklyn.
Apparently Punxsutawney Phil this morning predicted six more weeks of winter, so bundle up.
