Dutchman's Breeches and Trout Lilies are in flower … in Brattleboro. A sedge - Carex pennsylvanica - while not very showy, is also flowering. The sedge is common in oak woods and flowers before trees leaf out. l
Along the West River a Spotted Sandpiper was checking out exposed cobbles and sandbars.
And a rather destructive caterpillar was tunneling through a trillium as I came by. Although it posed nicely I was unable to identify the species.
