Janet's meadow

Our Friend Janet Schumacher would have been quite pleased the way her memorial wildflower garden turned out.Even better when good birds turn up.

The Greenwood Cemetery wildflower meadow in Janet ' s namesake turned up a Dickcissel this morning. This follows the Blue Grosbeak last Sunday. Birders now have a fall spot to check out now with all the seeds an attractive motive. Just wait till the sparrows come in.

In other news , though brief on this slower day , a Mourning warbler popped up at the base of the Switchback trail in Prospect Park, just left of the Maryland Monument.
