7-3 Pickerel Weed, Bull Thistle, Turkey Vultures

7-3 Marshes and shallow waters are home to Pickerel Weed. Flowers may be either blue or white.

Bull Thistle favors pastures, fields, roadsides and other weedy places.

Approximately 50 turkey Vultures lingered on a sandbar near the Retreat Meadows yesterday morning while waiting for the sun to create thermal lift. John
