Trivial Birds Go Elsewhere

Forest Park 2015-02-21 12

Never seen this before. It's on the same golf course as yesterday and raises all kinds of questions. What are they talking about, the whole city, Forest Park or just the golf course? Does the Audubon Society think there are places that are unimportant to bird conservation? (Under water, maybe? But then some birds catch fish.) Does the adjective "important" modify "bird" or "area"? (Think about it.)

Enquiring minds want to know.

Cold Day, Empty Park 2

FP winter 2015-01-04 11 

Still cold and empty in Forest Park, now at a golf course. I did these in color because of the zoyzia grass in its winter tan. This is a very thick variety, perfect for fairways and resistant to the heat of our summers. It turns a light golden brown at this time of year.

No one there. You can have any tee time you want. Coldest day in a year predicted for tomorrow, with a forecast high of 10F/-12C.
