NYBG Pink Roses
We signed up for a member’s Rose Brunch at the Stone Mill. We had a lovely meal after the guide showed us all the roses in the Rose Garden | New York Botanical Garden. The garden was initially designed by renowned landscape architect Beatrix Farrand (1872–1959).
Bayard Cutting Wildlife
Every year, an Osprey nests on the chimney at the mansion. I love the chickens at the small farm there.
Bayard Cutting Landscapes
I made more photographs of plants than landscapes during the outing.

There are lovely flowers at Bayard Cutting Arboretum in Long Island, NY. I try to identify what I see.
Advasar Doors
Ardvasar on Undiscovered Scotland has information about the little village on the Isle of Skye, Scotland. Ardvasar is the main village on the southern Sleat Peninsula of Skye. The village is reached by a scenic single-track road through woodland and along the coast, with views across to Knoydart. Key features include the Ardvasar Food Store, Community Hall, historic Ardvasar Hotel, residential areas, and views over the Sound of Sleat. The road continues to Aird of Sleat, a viewpoint and walking destination.
That evening we dined at the Duisdale House and Hotel. It was expensive, and the food was awful. It was the only really bad meal that we had during our two weeks in Scotland.
