Arnold Arboretum


On the most beautiful day of the year, I took Lily to Arnold Arboretum. She was able to collect enough dandelions for a small bouquet.

Flying/singing things: first good looks this spring at chipping sparrows, yellow-rumped warblers. This tree swallow was very active collecting nest material and singing, branch-tip.


And I stumbled upon this savannah sparrow. I thought it was a chipping sparrow at first and then I caught the yellow. Oh lovely birds. Turns out they are all over the place this time of year (I also spotted a flock feeding in the grass at the CRP).
