TRINITY RIVER AUDUBON CENTER TO BREAK GROUND

I guess the City of Dallas Public Information Office doesn’t read FrontBurner or our magazine cuz I didn’t get the press release announcing tomorrow (today’s) groundbreaking ceremony for the Trinity River Audubon Center. (Thanks, Paige.) Anywhoo, I will be late to work because I plan to attend the 10am event. Loads of bigwigs will be there like John Flicker, pres of National Audubon Society (can you believe his last name is Flicker?), Mary McDermott Cook of the Trinity Trust, Iliana Pena of Audubon Texas, and birdbrain Mayor Laura Miller. (I mean that in a good way.) It’s a great time to be a birder in Dallas. Soon there will be miles of trails, hands-on classes and exhibits, the Children’s Discovery Garden, and much more.
