I have wild columbine planted on the north side of my house, and they are always the first plant to start popping up in the spring. It will still be a little while until they bloom though. I love the different perspective you got by photographing from below.

A remarkable flower to find in these areas is a Ladies-Slipper orchid which I would love to see you illustrate.These like the skunk cabbage, have a long life, up to 100 years.Check to find out if they have them, a worthwhile find.Out on the prairiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09548162534362532705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7981450248684029870.post-89877112972608043242010-05-12T15:06:53.777-04:002010-05-12T15:06:53.777-04:00Gorgeous photos from the Columbine.

This was always a popular field trip for the science classes at my high school (Springfield's not too far from Urbana), but somehow I was never in the right science class, so I never got to go!! One of these days I will get there, though. Hey, I get to go to Clear Creek this Saturday for my OCVN class. If the weather's nice, I'll stick around for a bit after class to do some birding and photographing. Now... where is all that extra time you and I need to tap into?!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15791185232391134319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7981450248684029870.post-11717975078646036912010-05-12T11:23:08.225-04:002010-05-12T11:23:08.225-04:00Beautiful pictures of the Columbine!
