A tiny little snake crossed my path today, reacting fearlessly to my presence. I was unable to precisely identify the little maneater.
And the densely packed cylindrical flower spikes of Downy Rattlesnake Plantain tower over rosettes of white veined leaves in shaded woodlots. Rattlesnake Plantains are in the orchid family. There are 3 species in our area but this is the most common.
