We would like to thank @SolyArt of Rialto for submitting spectacular photos that capture the beauty of one of our local parks. 🦅 This week’s column focuses on the wildlife at Yucaipa Regional Park, a favorite spot for birdwatching and nature photography. In addition to its natural beauty, the park features three fishing lakes, scenic paths for walking and biking, and open grassy areas used for soccer and disc golf. Visitors will also find tent and RV camping, along with spacious group shelters that can host up to 350 people. In the summer, the park’s swim complex opens, which offers dual flume water slides and sandy beach surroundings. Other amenities include a playground, picnic tables and barbecue grills. Guests can also participate in activities like horseshoes or rent pedal boats.

TECHNOLOGY SOARS MORGAN FALLS OVERLOOK PARK INTRODUCES INTERACTIVE BIRDING! Sandy Springs has installed a cutting-edge digital display at Overlook Park that’s revolutionizing how visitors discover local wildlife, bringing the traditional park birdwatching experience into the 21st century. The 55-inch portrait-oriented screen automatically updates every 45 minutes to an hour with real-time bird sighting input from eBird, a popular app used by birdwatchers to log their observations. The display shows recently spotted species, complete with photos, spotter names and sighting dates. Jason Green, digital communications manager for Sandy Springs, spearheaded the project as part of the city’s digital innovation initiative. “Back in the day when I was a kid, there always used to be a recent bird sightings board when you would visit parks and nature preserves, but it’s something that’s died out because of technology,” Green says. His vision was to make birdwatching more accessible to casual park visitors. “The [app] experience is fantastic, but only if you know about it and if you’re already a birdwatcher,” he says. “I wanted to make that experience more discoverable to general park goers.” Once park visitors download the app to their devices via the QR code, the system works seamlessly behind the scenes, aggregating the information. The timing is designed so birdwatchers can see their own sightings appear on the screen by the time they finish their park visit, providing instant gratification for their contributions. This birding display, situated near the picnic pavilion at Morgan Falls Overlook Park, represents just one application of Sandy Springs’ expanding digital signage program. “I’m a Gen Xer, so I’m straddling that gap between pre- and post-cell phone,” Green says. “Trying to bridge that gap is something I’m always looking to do.” sandyspringsga.gov 📝Nicole Letts #MorganFallsOverlookPark #SandySpringsGA #InteractiveBirding #eBird #DigitalInnovation #Birdwatching #TechnologySoars #LocalParks #NatureDiscovery

From a local park earlier. There were a few random #dahlias in the mixed bed. Not quite the variety that's found in our botanic gardens but it's still fun to walk around and spot them. An extra hour of sleep later as the clocks go back tonight. 🕑 #daylightsavings #localparks

A #dahlia in the back garden today. Trying out a new lens after a decent fall of rain. It's super hot outside too sitting at 27 °C / 80.6 °F. #dahlias #gardens #bloomscrolling
