Path through the meadow

Path through the meadow

A mown path cut through a field left to go over to oxeye daisies, leading back toward the cottages at the edge of the grounds. A meadow like this takes more deliberate neglect than it looks: the trick is to cut late, after the flowers have set seed, and to take the hay off, because a meadow left to rot its own cuttings grows richer every year and the daisies lose out to grass.

Birds, insects, plants and other wildlife, mostly from Brooklyn, with some from further afield.
