In an effort to both get out and blog more (counter-productive as it may seem) I'm going to try and post pictures of wildflowers I see as I take walks through local parks. This week I went to Hazel Landing Park and found (from top left clock-wise) Spring Beauties, Violets (purple and white), and Whorled Milkwort. Of course there was also dandelion, clover and garlic mustard, but I didn't pick those on the hike.

Bonus round: There was a barred owl hooting as well. Now for the April Fools part - The purple violets hadn't opened yet, I didn't think they were violets at first - I even took them home to ID them, and the barred owl may have been another person, but if that is the case, it's the best barred owl impersonation I've heard.
