Just got this important message and wanted to pass it along:
EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY, Disposal Road is closed.
There is a substantial construction project under way along the road and we do not want to compromise your safety or the well-being of the construction crew.
Please use Valley Brook Avenue to access DeKorte Park.
We appreciate your cooperation.
Will try to find our more info tomorrow (Thursday).

it was a great day in Ridgefield Park last week. I saw Alice the Bald Eagle perched above the nest one day, and the next day Al was actually in the nest.
Several of us saw them flying and, later in the day, combining efforts to chase off a juvie that was perched on the nest tree when they arrived home at about 2 p.m.
(Thanks, Jill!)
Ron Shields photographed this old Red Fox last month in the Meadowlands.
We think the photo needs a caption….
Ron Shields, the dean of Meadowlands nature photography, is presenting a talk and slide show on “The Birds of the Meadowlands” next Wednesday (Jan. 14) at the Meadowlands Environment Center in DeKorte Park at 2 p.m.
Here’s a small sampling of his work. (More info on the talk follows.)
