Nuttin' Hunny!

Sunday was a quiet day for the two of us. After scrubbing the kitchen floor [el gato vomito], I left to go for a short drive downtown to the closest city park. It was very quiet there. Hardly any birds, and very little wildlife/wildflowers. I left about an hour after I arrived and went back home to eat an early lunch and then watch a TV series.  Lazy day.

This is what I saw at the park:

There is a small runoff brook meandering through the center of the park...it's a frog haven most times and an attraction for birds. Early enough and you'd hear a cacophony of birdsong and frogs croaking! Many different trees throughout, with the likes of palm, cypress, mesquite, oak, mulberry, mexican olive, pine, bushes -for instance, mountain laurel and cherry something or other [can't remember the name offhand -its the one shown here with pink flowers]. Wildflowers, tons of sunflowers and turk's cap. The trails are covered with chipped wood, making it quiet and soft on the back/legs. Stone benches. A bridge to cross the brook to the other side of the park on a hill. A drip system for birds, a covered pavilion with a chimney swift chimney -for swifts to nest in... etc. etc.
