| Mid-May is time to go hunting for lady's slipper orchids in the New Jersey pine barrens (with a face mask). Did it. Found them. Here they are. Click to enlarge. |
 |
| Joseph Pullman Porter wrote a poem called Wild Orchids that begins: Under the pines, near the murmuring brook, I know the wild orchids grow, Fair and pure in their shady nook... Exactly describing the spot where I found this orchid. Brook, shady nook, and all. |

| Beautiful but a little bit creepy, right? These are the first sightings of my 2020 orchid season. I will be on the lookout for more and post them when I find them. |
