In Bryan Park: Large amount of broken glass at the northwest end of the stream that feeds Sheridan Creek. Sunday afternoon March 1.
These the leaf-filled holes in Bryan Park. In the area where, I was told, and underground stream flows and then feeds into Sheridan Creek. I thought they might be burrowing crawdads holes. Someone else (see photo comment) suggests broken drainage tile. Was that area ever drained and tiled? In either case, can anything be done?
Two memorial trees in Bryan Park along the path in the middle have damaged plaques. One is almost completely ruined.
Bicyclists, skateboarders who pass walkers unannounced, catching.walkers off guard and nearly grazing them. Some shout "Passing on the left", which I always acknowledge. But, too few do so. I suggest signs along trails to affirm and require this simple act of trail etiquette. We are frequent walkers on the B-line and we think Switchyard Park is a wonderful addition to Bloomington. Thank you.
There is a parasite going around at the Ferguson Dog park. I know of a dog that has contracted Giardia over 6 times. Someone needs to post signage around the park to let people know the dangers of not picking up after their dogs and more poop stations with more bags so we can make it easier to hold the pet parents accountable. I have tried to tell other dog owners to pick up after their pets but it has not succeeded. Please do something because pet parents like me can't take out dogs while there is an issue like this. A friend and I have even gone to the length of going throughout the park and cleaning up the entire thing. However it has not stayed that way. Please do something so not other dogs have to get sick and potentially die.
Now leasing sign on rail trail s of Gordon Pike, Unity Church
B line trail from Henderson to south walnut is a mess. There are hypodermic needles, lots of dog feces, clothes, garbage and debris. The needles are dangerous and disgusting.
Curious: why was this Bryan Park bluebird box moved from the east side to the west side of the big Norway spruce between the tennis courts and the Woodlawn picnic shelter? Thanks!
