Don't forget: The Meadowlands Commission and the Bergen County Audubon Society are sponsoring a free nature walk  at Harrier Meadow in North Arlington on Sunday, Aug. 2, at 1 p.m.

   The walk is rain or shine. Lightning cancels.

As always, bug spray, binoculars and sunscreen are a good idea…

   Because Harrier Meadow is ordinarily closed to the public, you will need to sign a standard release to visit the site. Download it here or sign a release on Sunday:
