Two days ago I spotted my first wildflowers of the season.  Bloodroots were blooming in profusion.  The day was eighty degrees and sunny, and the bloodroots were wide open (first photo.)   The next day was gray, drizzly, and in the sixties.  The bloodroots decided to stay in for the day (second photo).  I don’t blame them.

Bloodroot – Sanguianaria canadensis – on a warm, sunny day.

The greenery has popped over the weekend because of the warm weather.  Here are more shots of new spring growth.
