Spring beauties The title of this post
is a bit misleading. Yes, the Spring Beauties did start blooming
a week ago, and the woods is currently alive with hepatica, rue
anemone, buttercup, sedge, and trout-lily flowers. But when I
went out with the camera this morning, I was drawn away from the
blossoms and toward the other signs of spring. The photo above is
a Dryad Saddle poking out of a stump in our garden.  Our buckeye trees are
just starting to leaf out. I'm glad we're located on the north
side of a hill because that shade slowed our trees down just enough
that they didn't get nipped by the hard freeze earlier this week.  Looks like a squirrel
was hanging out in this hollow tree all winter. Want to be notified when new comments are posted on this page? Click on the RSS button after you add a comment to subscribe to the comment feed.
