Today Yarrow was opening a few flowers. Somewhat bedraggled Cow Vetch drooped in the fields. Hop Clover - one of three very similar Yellow Clovers - was coming on strong. And Silvery Cinquefoil - one of ten or eleven Cinquefoils listed in my field guide - was just starting to open; the underside of this plant's leaves are a beautiful silvery white. And in wet areas, the four petaled flowers of Red Osier Dogwood seemed to float above the new green of its leaves.
