Whats Blooming

Shooting stars are starting to pass their peak.  Some are purple and some are white.  There a several between the two bridges along the creek.  

Bees are enjoying Golden Alexanders in abundance.


















Wild Geraniums are at peak right now on the forested hillside.

Also, Virginia Waterleaf can be be found along the marsh road.

Enjoy!

Thursday Happenings

Although much of the park has received its 'summer cut', the marsh road has not been touched yet.  There is still time to catch the Virginia Waterleaf.  Northwood has their own Wild Geranium now as well.  They can be seen on the forested hillsides.  The taller purple flowers are Dame's Rocket.

Golden Alexanders are also in bloom along the creek edges.

Enjoy!

Visiting Next Door

Virginia Waterleaf

Wild Geranium

I headed next door today - to French Regional Park.  I thought I might find this flower - Virginia Waterleaf.  Although there are some along our marsh road, the 'haircut' timing usually prevents us from seeing this blossom.  Maybe this year it will be different.  Most at French are not quite open as well.  Wild Geranium are blooming in abundance though.  




Aside from these, I found a little Water Horsetail drenched in dew.

Enjoy!
