Trilliums!

[Don Boucher]

Hello,

 

What a surprise. On my ride home along Riverside Drive I snapped a photo from a small patch of Western Trilliums. This is a good wildflower patch which yielded many other native flowers last spring. On the west side of Riverside Drive about a quarter mile north of Walnut Drive.

 

Also, on my ride through the OSU campus, the sunset was spectacular. No photo of that, I'm still learning this new (used) camera I got. I also heard the "zeee" call of a Hermit Thrush.

Hi all-

I forgot to mention this sooner, but last weekend, in our deepest stream
valley, we found blooming fetid adders' tongues and a few open
trilliums. I noticed that fawn lily leaves are coming up now, and the
flower stalks of calypso orchids are showing too. This is all about 6
mi SW of Philomath, eastern edge of the Coast Range.
