Unexpected Strength in Small Packages

When most wildflowers have dried and gone to seed, some unexpected flowers remain in bloom.  These fresh blooms are nothing short of small wonders.

Enjoy!

Rise and Shine!

Tuesday, Rue Anemone were barely visible as little red sprouts peeking out from behind leaves on the forest floor.  Today, although still small, several can be seen in bloom.  

Enjoy!

Sunday Findings

The False Solomon's Seal is starting to end.  Most can be found in the forest.  Some can be seen along the forest edge near the first bridge. 

Canada Anemone are popping up along the lake shoreline near the bridge outlet.

Tall buttercup and American Vetch can be found along the marsh road.









And near Winnetka Avenue, found this Red Clover.  I believe that is a baby grasshopper hiding among the petals.

Enjoy!

White Avens and Motherwort are blooming along the forest edge.
