Lemi, the Brooklyn Heights parakeet who literally flew the coup last weekend is back home – safe and sound.
She’d been spotted on Flatbush Avenue, and more recently on the tennis court at Fort Greene Park. Now, word comes via Instagram that she’s A-OK:
Lemi, the yellow parakeet who flew away from his Brooklyn Heights home the weekend of May 10, was spotted last Tuesday (5/13) by Instagram user @alexcarabano. However, Lemi’s owner who had posted signs all around the area wasn’t notified of the sighting until last night. The photo was taken on Flatbush near the Manhattan Bridge. […]
A rare find at 250 Henry Street. Also see photo below (after the jump). Of course, an econ professor who believes in efficient market theory would say, “Impossible. Someone would already have taken them.”
Signs were posted all over Brooklyn Heights this weekend in search of Lemi, a yellow parakeet that has gone missing. Her owners texted BHB Sunday (5/11) night: Our yellow parakeet Lemi is still not home. Any leads, even bad news, would be greatly appreciated. Please contact us at 917-971-4229. No word on if Lemi is […]
It was beautiful while it lasted. However, the “wheatpaste” mural painted guerilla style sometime Tuesday night on the Brooklyn Heights Promenade is no more.

Watch after the jump.
A BHB tipster caught a glimpse of who we will assume was Heights Hero Captain Cleanup over the weekend:
Peacenik group I Declare World Peace, who would like as many people in the world to share its simple vision added a new supporter today. Brooklyn Heights based artist Mark Hurwitt is captured on the Brooklyn Heights Promenade in a video saying “I Declare World Peace.” IDCWP has a large number of similar videos on […]
They must be redecorating the dorm rooms at the Hotel St George, because a tipster sent us this photo with the message, “Disappointed in EHS dumping all of these bookcases into the trash. Isn’t there a Brooklyn org that uses old wood to make new things?” Anyone able to salvage a few?
Citizens Defending Libraries, the group headed by long time Brooklyn Heights resident Michael D.D. White was quite vocal at Thursday’s annual Brooklyn Heights Association meeting. When BHA president Alexandra Bowie talked about the group’s stance on the Brooklyn Heights library, White and company hissed their disagreement (no, White didn’t go to Harvard). Oh, and they […]
A truck took out a tree on Henry Street today. No people were injured, but the poor tree was not so lucky. From the photo you can see where contact was made on the upper right-hand corner of the truck and the side mirror.
