I went to
Brush Creek after work today and put in a couple of miles hiking. I was specifically after what I think is a 2nd red Trillium that is there, the Southern Red Trillium. I found it last year and had helping ID'ing it as
Trillium sulcatum, Southern Red Trillium. I will high light the two below. I found several new wildflowers in bloom and all of the Trillium were at peak bloom with heavy rain coming tonight to knock them down. I had to take pictures of every new clusters of trillium, in every possible position, against a tree, against a rock, against moss, ferns. There were so many and they looked great and they demanded to be photographed; I mean it, I heard them: "Pssstt, hey, over here, please take our picture. You have to, we will never look this good again, we'll be gone soon. We look better than the last twenty pictures you took of trillium. Pleeeeease."
Many pictures to follow, I may need to add captions later, Its been a long day and another one tomorrow.
