Ithaca Farmers' Market

We happened upon this awesome structure, the Ithaca Farmers' Market, 

at the edge of the city near the harbor on a non-market day.  

The website, http://www.ithacamarket.com, says there are 150 vendors. 

Inside this beautiful shed, built entirely by volunteers on waste land, are 80 unique stalls. 

The place was spotless on the day we visited, a day immediately following an open day. 

We will return!

Cornell Plantations, Ithaca

At the Cornell Lab of Ornithology at Sapsucker Woods, Ithaca

An antique collection of hummingbirds, 98 of them, all different, In a mahogany case. Click on the picture to full screen for fantastic effect!

The collection was given to Cornell by a Rochester family, descendants not of the collector but of a traveler who fortunately had the means to bring them from Panama. Mounted long ago, more recently restored, they retain their wildly irridescent feather coloration.

A great blue heron, one among a reproducing group, is very alive and preening in the pond at Sapsucker Woods.
