Today’s the big day of the Solar Eclipse.  Click here for where & when to watch.

After it’s over, what are we going to do for fun and excitement?  Let’s go outdoors.

Join me on a bird and nature walk in Schenley Park next Sunday, August 27, 8:30am to 10:30am.

Meet at Bartlett Shelter on Bartlett Street near Panther Hollow Road. We’ll look in the meadow for flowers, birds and butterflies, then explore the woodland trails.  I’m sure we’ll see honey bees, perhaps on wingstem flowers (Verbesina alternifolia) like this one.

Dress for the weather and wear comfortable walking shoes. Bring binoculars and field guides if you have them.

Before you come, visit the Events page in case there are changes or cancellations.  The outing will be canceled if there’s lightning!
