Today Rabbit's-foot Clover added its soft fuzzy pink to the roadside show.
Canada Thistle (which is actually from Europe) held its fragrant pink clusters above weed patches and thickets. Although rarer, there is also white Canada Thistles.
Shinleaf opened a few flowers. Shinleaf is one of a half-a-dozen Pyrolas found in this area.
Red-bellied Woodpeckers fed fledglings … but didn't pose for pictures.
And, finally, an American Idea moth was flying last night. The larval food for this little species is lichens.
