Please click-through for my latest ‘In the Weeds’ at THE AWL, on Fort Tryon Park, which is miraculously in bloom this February. Below are some outtakes!
Looking down at the grotto of Eastern White Pines.
The arched entrance to the park.
The heather garden with elm trees in the distance, or my idea of heaven.
I love how the sedum is tinged with red and orange in the winter.
A white birch.
Originally the paths were brick, but now most are covered in pavement.
An ancient (cherry? I’m not exactly sure, to be honest) tree in the late-afternoon sun.
A closeup of the heather.
A black squirrel, which I think is relatively new to the area; or at least I don’t remember seeing them in Fort Tryon before this year.
The western edge of the park (note the GWB in the distance!)
A cat who appears rather too-well groomed to be a stray (but why is he/she not inside?)
The cotoneaster berries.
A starling chilling in the bushes.
