This is the first bud of the Meadow Buttercup - around here it always grows very close to water.
And this is the first view of the Meadow Vetchling - a yellow-flowered pea that will flower well into September.
I suspected the Hartstongue fern curl would lent itself to this kind of picture. Very pretty.
This Cinnabar Moth spent the winter as a chrysalis in our house. It emerged today.
