NYBG Flowers 1

Some traditional flowers at the NY Botanical Garden, Bronx, NY.

High Line

A local walk on the High Line Park, New York City.

East Point Lighthouse

On our way to Wheaton we stopped at the Cape May Brid Observatory in Cape May Courthouse. Then briefly at the East Point Lighthouse in Heislerville, New Jersey. The last picture is a boat that we passed by several times at Fulling Mill Road, Rio Grande, New Jersey.

Tyler Road

The Tyler Rood Trail is in in Upper Township in southern New Jersey close to Cape May. It has lovely meadows with butterflies and flowers and a small family burial ground. I recently read “The Pine Barrens” by John McPhee. It covers the culture of the Pineys and much more.

Plants in the Pine Barrens

I like to try to identify wildflowers. I use iNaturalist and the internet. The red maples are seeding and from a distance it looks like the trees have red flowers. 5 of 8 posts.

Central Park LS

Landscapes and spring flowers in March.

Marine Park

Marine Park in Brooklyn was the third place we stopped at during the LSNY field trip. We found our target bird, a Red-headed Woodpecker. The Hooded Mergansers were at the Salt Marsh nature Center at Marine Park.
