The rain this winter has made everything happy this spring. All around us the trees are green, the flowers are bright and colorful and we are seeing more birds visiting the feeders than last year.
Bluebonnets
Lithospermum incisum, known as Fringed Puccoon.
Wild Onion
Erodium texanum, also known as Texas Filaree, Texas Stork’s Bill, or Heronbill (Front)
purple prairie verbena (Glandularia bipinnatifida) (back left)
Dewberry
Wild Honeysuckle (Growing high up in an Oak tree)
Prunus serotina (Black Cherry)
I had not noticed this tree until we did some clearing this past summer. After reading about it, I am glad we left it.

wonderful photos. That’s really rare that somebody knows all the names of the flowers. That was really interesting.
