Obedient Plant, AKA False Dragonhead, is blooming on the banks of the Connecticut River. It's hard to tell if any one Obedient Plant is truly wild or a garden escape. All I can say is that this one was a long way from any residence. Nearby both Pickerel Weed and Water Parsnip were in flower.
And one of the Longhorn Beetles, probably one called the Northeastern Borer posed while I took tis picture. Larvae of this species develop in dead and dying conifers.
