The beginning of Fall


On Monday, Sept 17, 2012,  at about 9:30 am., Alice Deutsch spotted an  Olive-sided Flycatcher in the Maintenance Meadow. Although Fall officially begins tomorrow, at 9:49 a.m. to be exact, to me the arrival of the Olive-sided Flycatcher in Central Park always spells the end of summer.
