I took the dogs to the White Hill Wild Forest and walked around Clear Pond one day, but took so many photos that I separated them into dog pictures and plant pictures. These are the latter, and the first photo is of Leatherleaf in bloom along the shoreline of Clear Pond:
There didn't seem to be many flowers blooming, but the Red Maple leaves unfurling sparkled in the sun and were as pretty as any flower:
Violets are hard to identify but I guessed that these were Northern White Violets. They were very tiny:
An unknown Moss. I searched Google for an ID, but finally gave up:
Wild Strawberries, of course. They were blooming everywhere:
Blue Flag, our Wild Iris:
Tree Club Moss, or Princess Pine:
Viburnum lantanoides, or Hobblebush. I included the Latin name because I found the plant so difficult to find online and it wasn't in my wildflower field guide:
A closeup of Viburnum lantanoides or Hobblebush:
Painted Trillium:
Pillow Moss:
Running Club Moss, sometimes called Running Ground Pine. But there was more to see, and I'll post Part 2 tomorrow:
