Today Blue False Indigo tints riverbanks and gravel bars along the West River.
Black-eyed Susans are starting to open in dry fields and along roadsides.
Common Milkweed lifts its often overlooked and underappreciated flower clusters over wet areas.
And, finally, last night a Large Yellow Underwing moth was flying. The larvae of this species are winter cutworms. I find them in midwinter (and alive) atop the snow. This moth was accidentally introduced in 1979 into Maritime Canada and has spread at least as far south as Texas.
