Bird Island is part of the Edsel & Eleanor Ford Estate NE of Detroit on the shore of Lake Saint Clair. It was created in 1928 from the dredging of Ford Cove. Eleanor loved birds and so they had it planted with trees and plants to attract birds. It is a bird sanctuary and the local Audubon Society conducts walks during the spring and fall migratory seasons and on a typical year identify over 100 species. However, the island is heavily wooded and with my eyesight is not good at locating small birds and most are too far away to photograph, so there are no bird photos in this post.

There are a few unnamed flowers. If anyone can name some I would very much appreciate it. Of course, downloads are best and thanks for viewing. - John
