With a fantastic lineup and fantastic weather for the Clearwater Festival I took the opportunity to twice walk the landfill. Highlights were numerous bobolinks, 2 grasshopper sparrow, 1 meadowlark (I have heard there are as many as 4). Not sure where else in Westchester county those species breed. And followed by fantastic sets yesterday by John Fullbright, Laura Cantrell, Buckwheat Zydeco, the incomparable Richard Thompson and the Mavericks among others in an idyllic setting ... For those who can't get to the Festival listen live or stream WFUV for sets by Lake Street Dive, David Bromberg, Josh Ritter, Norah Jones, and Lucinda closing things down. And if you get there get your ice cream at The Blue Pig. Good birding and thanks Pete and Toshi.
