A Couple Of Revisits
I've recently been asking myself how it is that I am discovering new wildflower species. After all, shouldn't I have come upon them within the past two years? I guess there are always new discoveries!
Today, though, I get to present a couple of previously found species.

There is a quote from Thoreau that deals with your theme today- unfortunately I cannot put my finger on it at this moment to share here verbatim, but the gist of it is that it is a good thing that we cannot recognize (or even recall/remember) all of the plants we see on our walks because if we did, the excitement of our journey would be diminished- the thrill of the hunt would be gone- and we would not continue to venture forth into this beautiful amazing world of ours.
