There are lovely flowers at Bayard Cutting Arboretum in Long Island, NY. I try to identify what I see.
Bayard Cutting Plants
Created from a trip that I led for Sierra Club Photo NYC – New York City Sierra Club Photography Committee. There will be four more posts on the Bayard Cutting Arboretum.
Harriman SP
We typically visit Harriman State Park in New York about twice a year. This trip was in early June, when the mountain laurel was still blooming (laurel in prior post). The sphinx moth was a treat. Nature always offers rewards.
Mountain Laurel
In June, I photographed mountain laurel in three locations. I found a pink variety in a right-of-way near Call Hollow Road near the Bayard Cutting Arboretum. At the arboretum there was a striking red variety. I love the sculptural design of the flowers.
Mt Gulian
We had a lovely historical tour led by a historian at Mount Gulian Historic Site | Hudson Valley | Beacon NY. The flowers are from the garden there. After that, we drove to Stony Kill Farm Environmental Education Center – NYSDEC. I photographed a wet young red-tailed hawk there.
Ardvasar 1 of 2
Marc didn’t enjoy driving on the narrow, single-lane road to Ardvasar. The challenging drive was well worth it. 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.Â
I enhanced the second photograph of the bare tree to bring it out. Marc loves walls. His photograph is the second to last.
Green-Wood Doors
Gree0Wood’s new Welcome and Education Center. And some doors in the Green-Wood Chapel.
