Appreciation of Morning Freshness

 The recent rain over the weekend not only kept the plants healthy and the flowers pretty, but also cleared the pollen particles from the air.  After waking up the morning after the rain, I could not wait to take delight at the freshness of everything.   
I first took a walk around my house, and saw wisteria crawling over the fence from my neighbor's yard.  The flowers and the buds looked beautiful under the morning sun.  On the vine hanging water drops looked like crystal beads on a necklace.  Buds of new leaves were like professional dancers performing on the stage by extending multiple arms.  In Brightwood Park the overgrowth of wisteria has been a threat to many trees and there is a current effort to remove it.  Yet at many homes it remains ornamental as long as the growth is under control.  
 
Going to the park early in the morning, the chance of seeing birds and animals is higher than the rest of the day.  Although the great-horned owl was not home, I was able to see a gray catbird on a nearby tree branch and a green heron from a distance away.  Along with the catbird and the heron, a mallard duck served as my photography model.
 
The reflection of the trees in the pond has always been an attraction to artists.  Today I saw a triangle-shaped stone located across from the dam and bridge.  With a fresh impression of the waterfront area of Manhattan where I visited a week ago, I named it Brightwood VIA 57 WEST.
