Brooklyn Tweets of the Week: Fall foliage and commuting fowl edition
A roundup of (some of) our favorite locally sourced tweets for the week ending November 12
Not all heroes wear capes: This week’s best Twitter Samaritan mailed a misplaced wallet back to its rightful owner in Prospect Heights—still full of cash! Also, a duck was spotted on the J train (possibly in search of affordable rent?), and fall’s foliage fireworks were on full display.
If you see something, say something: Be sure to tag us if you see anything that we should include next week. Have a great weekend!
Misplaced my wallet two months ago into Prospect Heights.
Today, this arrived at my apartment. All of the cash still there.

Duck farmer here; this is not funny; ducks only take the J when they are stressed because they’ve been priced out of Williamsburg. https://t.co/BAdHbhvj6u

The passage under the Williamsburg Bridge on Driggs is one of the worst places in all of New York and anyone who parks in its feather filled anarchy is a lunatic pic.twitter.com/vRlspKno71

new york newbies are obsessed with trying to identify locations in pics when no one is asking them to and being violently incorrect… “is this sant ambroeus in soho???” no babe its a vegan cafe in boerum hill… <3

On a coffee line in cobble hill and the woman ahead of me just keeps screaming into the phone CALL YOUR LAWYER and the guy behind me is un-inviting someone to his birthday in Miami
