I love early spring wildflowers in Indiana.  It’s living proof that the winter is behind us and warm days are on the way.  I think winter is nice for about a week, then I’m done with it, and the long wait for spring begins.

Today I wen tromping around the woods at Sodalis Nature Park and took oodles of pictures.

Sweet Williams

Trillium and Dutchman’s breeches.

Cool little shelf mushrooms

My best guess for the one on the left is Scillia, which is an invasive species.  On the right is Bloodroot, which is not flowering yet.

May apples have recently sprung up and aren’t blooming yet.

Spring Beauties are a particular favorite of mine.

Blue violets and yellow ones were all over.

Jack in the Pulpit on the left and American Mint on the right.

Do yourself a favor; get out in the woods and shake off the winter blues.

There’s only a few days left to nominate my horror/ farce, Teatime of the Living Dead!  Click the picture above to check it out!
