A Wild Ozark Weekly-ish

Here in the Arkansas Ozarks, the time for spring wildflowers is here. Some of the ephemerals are still lingering, but the bloodroot is well and gone. Now the later, more durable flowering is underway.

Between thunderstorms today, I went out to check on the Showy orchids. I always miss seeing them until the flowers are up, and sometimes not until they’re already peaked. So today began my Showy Orchid Watch.

Sometimes, I feed at the back gate. There’s a few reasons why, but I’m sure they think it’s because I’m just inconveniencing the horses. That’s only part of the purpose, though.
