Terri and I spent the day at the Creek, to do a little work on the lower creek trail, prior to the work day. The wildflowers continue to bloom. Blue Phlox is blooming well and scattered around the property. Dutchman's Breeches, Toothwort, Blood Root, and Pale Corydalis are on the decline. The Yellow Trout Lilys really put on a show in the afternoon. The False Rue Anemone are getting more numerous as well.

We were able to get to the lower creek. There wasn't any water in the creek bed except for the deep holes and some in the side drains. We got to the tall waterfall on the lower creek. It is a side drain that has about a 50 ft. slide. It had a really good flow. Found some other good drains for when the water is there.

In the lower area we also came across Sharp Lobed Hepatica. A little white wildflower and not very common. This is a close cousin to the more common Round Lobed Hepatica.
