Minnesota Wildflower Week!

I might even add a few bird photographs, but over the next seven days I will be enjoying a summer which is trying to come to the Northland (temperature did not top 50F yesterday). Thus my focus will be upon wildflowers, and here near Lake Superior flowers are starting to come into their own. This weekend would be an excellent time to take a bicycle ride in the countryside. While one will see wildflowers from a car, it is when one slows down to 12 mph that the joy of the colors truly explodes on your senses.

For my first wildflower post, I have to lead with lupines. These blossoms are from my own yard (photo taken today)! Enjoy.

And as promised … a bird pic or two … in this case some Wilson’s Snipes I saw last week which were making certain other snipes knew the territorial boundaries.
