cities need nature, one astronomer says

This is UA's old golf course. Lots of bird calls here. I took this photo last week.
Check out this cool story heard today on National Public Radio (NPR). It's about how cities and nature can work together. It's so Frederick Law Olmsted, 21st century-style. Apparently, even songbirds change their tunes while living in cities. Makes me wonder now about the bird in our backyard lately. Must be a migratory one on his way somewhere south of here. Sounds like he's singing "Jeter, Jeter, Jeter" (That one's for you, my late Mississippi-born-Yankees-fan Grandpa).
