I birded in the Fenway today. This included areas within and without the victory gardens. One of the giant Willows came crashing down near Agassiz Rd. shortly after I had been musing about whether this tree might keel over. (it wasn't looking too healthy. (one of its giant limbs had sometime in the past fallen off)
