September 2015 Wildflowers


Enjoying early Fall West Virginia Wildflowers.
Here are a few highlights

Nodding Ladies Tresses
                                        
                
                                                                   

These are from a field near my home that has hundreds 
           of these Nodding Ladies Tresses each year

A small flock of migrating Bulbats (Common Nighthawk) flitted around my home for a couple hours one evening last week. An interesting sight, but hard to photograph 

                            

A grandson tries paddling. He did catch a couple of fish.
