Hairy Willow Herb is lending a touch of color to damp thickets and marshy areas. This plant can reach six feet in height.
Slender Gerardia is a lover of dry - and often disturbed - areas.
The Bald Eagle fledged recently from the Townshend Dam nest sat obligingly while I snapped its picture. I suspect it was waiting for an adult to bring it a meal.
And a boldly marked Clymene moth flushed its yellow hind wings when I disturbed it. This one is a bit worn and faded.
