Afternoon delight in flowers and young couples in love.

 I first want to thank Eugene Tabachnik for inviting me to take a late afternoon walk with him in Brightwood Park.  In addition to enjoying the beautiful flowers, a daring squirrel, and breath-taking reflections of trees and a goose, I was able to take photos of wood ducks close up as they snacked along the edge of the pond.  I watched as the Mrs. seemed to be reminding the Mr. to keep his table manners and not to eat like chickens or woodpeckers.  

I also saw a ear-muff-shaped mushroom with the back covered with moss.  It was located on a log near Prospect Street entrance. I had so much fun that I had to be reminded by my wife's call to go home for dinner.
