I finally remembered to take my camera with me yesterday when I went to Beltsville. The trail through the woods has been very scenic these last few weeks. Many wild flowers blooming. Of course, I missed the weeks when the woods was covered with tiny pink blossoms. There is a photo of a few remaining. Also missed getting a photo of the 'woods lily' -but I have two of those at home and have posted a photo recently. Yesterday, a whole new batch of flowers were in bloom. The lovely little white flower in the first photo might surprise you. It's poison ivy!! The woods are full of it. I carefully stay on the trail and away from the trees. Poison ivy climbs right up the trees. I don't know the names of most of these plants and don't have a wildflower book in which to look them up. The names aren't really important, except for the poison ivy! The yellow ones are what I know as buttercups.
