April Flowers

 Over the last few weeks, I've been able to get in a bit of running.  At this point I'm completely healthy, although maybe not completely fit, but am thankful to be back in the forest.  As the rain delayed the flowers this year, I was able to get going in the nick of time and see all the flowers coming up.  At this point, the trillium, fairy slippers, and glacier lilies are out and just a few iris are starting to show up.  A little later in the year we will have a ton of iris out, some tiger lilies and foxglove.  I'll put up some more pictures when those arrive, but here's this months allotment of flowers!
The first trillium

Fairy slippers starting to come out






Fairy slippers and Poison Oak stalks





Just a few iris so far

Glacier Lilies





A little hard to see, but probably 20 fairy slippers here
