See? I DID go outside!

And it was beautiful! The unseasonably hot weather broke last night and today was delightfully spring-like... and of course tomorrow night we're back down into possible heavy FROST. Ugh. That will do some damage to some of the plants I've been keeping an eye on to see what they turn into

I love trilliums...

We had a random week of 80 degrees with crushing humidity, and now they're calling for snow tomorrow night. Typical.

The wild grapes are AMAZING. And that giant fallen tree -- what part of it or something else is on top of it, that part looks like maybe a direwolf. :)

I always love places where the grape vines have fallen down into these strange twisted piles like a wooden snake.

And that part at the top of the fallen dead tree is the stump of a big, thick branch that broke when it fell. That branch is bigger than me.

I think the first pic of the tree with the long stem of white flowers is probably chokecherry.

I do believe you're right! Thank you! I have no idea why none of my field guides kicked that out, but it certainly looks right!

The crabapple trees look so beautiful :)

Tent caterpillars really are gross X_X;

[rubyelf]

Yes, they are!

I love your ent. Some great pictures, sorry I can't help with the identification though.

I am very fond of my ent... he is very old and I'd like to think he's very wise. And identifying some of those little, short-lasting spring flowers is tricky even with a good field guide...
