Bird Sanctuary ART

The Stone Harbor Bird Sanctuary inhabits several city blocks – sandwiched between 2nd and 3rd Avenues and running from 111th Street to 117th Street. The small building in the photo above sits at one of the trailheads and had the coolest, folk-artsy door painting! I just had to capture it!

I spent some time one morning walking around the sanctuary trails. Some trails were closed due to Covid but I still enjoyed the stopover. If you are visiting the area, check out their website for information on trails and events.

While I actually did not see any birds, I did enjoy the native plants and some late summer blooming perennials.
