Summer Wildflowers



I walked on the Cross Country trail at the college this week and saw these lovely wildflowers.  The first one is called Queen Anne's Lace and it really is very lacy looking.  It's related to carrots but is usually known for it's lovely flower.

Next is Rose-Pink or Bitterbloom.  It's a lovely pink color, a contrast to the many yellow flowers found this time of year.

Last is Black-eyed Susan.  Many people have this growing in their summer flower garden. I do.  But it's also found growing wild in open places like this trail.

I love to walk on the cross country trail- and stay out of the way of the runners!  There is shady woods and open, meadow like areas.  Besides flowers, I see different types of birds and sometimes a deer or a rabbit.  It's a great place to walk.
