Bottom: a deer’s eyes reflect the twilight in a field on Mary’s Way that is destined to be replaced by the Oriole Landing mixed-income housing development once town approvals are in place. “It’s going to be sad to see this field becoming 60 apartments,” said photographer Cathy O’Brien, who lives next door.
Woodchucks photographed by Harold McAleer survey the territory and munch, walrus-like, on some tasty blades of grass.

In a May 10 post headlined “The last mile (Lincoln Through the Lens),” the Ryan Estate resident in the center of the photo was misidentified. She is Fran Doyle, not Elinor Nichols. The original post has been corrected.
Fran Doyle (center) is thrilled with the completion of a new Lincoln Road sidewalk between the Ryan Estates, where she lives, and the Cambridge Trust Co. building, making it much safer for her and others to walk to the mall and other South Lincoln locations. The sidewalk is one of several planned roadway improvement projects in town. With her are (left to right) DPW Superintendent Chris Bibbo, traffic consultant John Vancor, and DPW Foreman Steve McDonald.
