The children played and searched for tadpoles.
The little stream we followed led me to find a flower that I had never knowingly observed before.

Yellow Fumewort

I took this picture of the leaves to help me identify later.
This little plant was growing very near the water. I thought I had better get a picture of the stem and leaves for the purpose of identifying later.

The toadflax that my youngest is holding is one of my favorite wildflowers, but again, I have many.

Of course there were many other wildflowers that were blooming that I did not include. I've got pictures of dandelion, bladderpod, and more. But currently, due to life in general ie lack of time, I'm not able to include all of what I've found. I will continue to post pics and show many though, just not all.
My husband and I did a bit of hiking yesterday and I noticed that the spiderwort, yarrow, rudbeckia, and tickseed will soon be blooming. I'm sure I'll be posting pictures of these during my April Wildflowers post.
Have a wonderful Sunday and rest of week!

beautiful pics! We have those little yellow flowers & I always wondered what they were. Thanks! Holly
Just stopping by for a very belated hello. :) Love your photos, and I am sooo looking forward to the real spring and seeing stuff grow! Everything's really greening up around here and I'm ready to plant the garden!
Hope all's well with you and your family, Julie.
I'm hoping to explore our property and learn the names of our wildflowers, too. Besides the pastures, we have probably 100 acres of woodlands. We also have 7 ponds that had TONS of tadpoles a couple of months ago. But, sadly (to me), no creeks or streams. Our ponds are man-made, but we do have a natural spring!
