we danced. we did.

ahead of the rain, hot weather has accelerated everything in the garden. tonight it’ll all be soaked.

First it was sticks. Then plastic. Dressings of pine boughs and now the City Paper.

There will be egg(s) any day now in the red tail hawk nest at the Franklin Institute.

Keep your eyes peeled…

Nice.

The Franklin Institute hawk cam is live again. Haggards (mom+dad) are tending the nest on a ledge at the NW corner of the Institute. We can hope for more eyasses (baby red-tails) this year. Keep your eyes peeled on trips around the Parkway. Word is that the adults may be performing fabulous aerial mating flights about now.

Exciting!

It’s shaping up to be a good, busy year for the extendedPLAYers. Stay tuned!
