This title may become a series, but for now, I just want to honor Alex Summers. He called me back in about 1980, and said "Hey why don't we do a Christmas Bird Count here in the Seaford area?" So we did...unofficially in 1981, and it became part of the Audubon Christmas Bird Counts in 1982 until present. And the Sussex Bird Club was formed in 1982, with first President Bill Fintel.
But now back to the inspirational Alex Summers. He was an expert birder and also a Hosta expert supreme. He passed on over a decade ago, but his many friends and close family have maintained a wonderful web site in his memory. You can view it here at Honeysong Farm.
I have just lost a very close fishing friend, and realize that after 70, our years are limited, but still to be enjoyed, and shared with others as best we can. Below is a relational memory of Alex, Sally and me.
