It was mostly the Spring wildflowers we'd gone to see.

Among others, we saw sweet white trillium, just starting to bloom, on the hike.

The umbrella-like Mayapples have their tiny hidden fruits.

The delicate sharp-lobed hepatica. I think.

Pennywort. I have no idea why it's called that.

Trillium luteum, or yellow trillium, with a lemony scent.

Bloodroot, which produces the tissue-destroying toxin sanguinarine.

Trout lilies.  The petals fold back as they bloom.

And the trout lily's shadow cousin, the anti-trout lily.

And the star of our hike, a hillside absolutely covered in stunning bluebells.
