Backyard Springtime Nature in New Jersey.

Flowers, some are native wildflowers, some are seeded wildflowers. The mushrooms are native and some of them are being guarded by one of my trolls.

Springtime Nature in New Jersey.

First Sunday in the Park organized by Montgomery Friends of Open Space. This month it was a walk through Rock Mill Preserve looking for spring wildflowers led by Sarah Roberts. Although it was cool and there were a few sprinkles, we did see a number of wildflower and other spring growth along the trail. Images taken with a Fuji X-T1 camera and 60 mm f/2.4 macro lens.
