Since we're already into March, I thought it might be time to begin a 2016 thread.
Welcome to all who love wildflowers!
Please join us in our appreciation and feel free to post photos or comments. Photos don't have to be of wildflowers growing in your yard, they can be from anywhere.
We came from here:
The thread "SE USA wildflowers, 2015" in
Wildflowers forum
I changed the thread to include all of the North American continent instead of just the SE USA, so we don't exclude our northern, central or western wildflower aficionados.
The photo above is of Goldfinches on Rumex acetosella otherwise known as Red Sorrel. There are 9 Goldfinches on the Rumex stems in the photo. Can you find them all? The small seed eating birds go crazy around this time of year eating the ripened seed of these plants.
Here is the plant in our database:
Sheep's Sorrel (Rumex acetosella)
