March 31 Early Flowers on Porter's Creek



It was a slow walk on Porter's Creek Trail today. Not as slow as this fellow, but I am nursing a sore foot still. We had hoped to run into a slew of wildflowers but Spring is hesitate to come this year. 


About a mile and a half from the parking area you enter the big wildflower fields just after crossing the creek. Normally, at peak Spring bloom, this spot looks like a snow field, covered in fringed phacelia. Not today. We saw a few but they are holding back this year.


We did see a few spring beauties including this one.


Another spring beauty.
