SUNBATHERS

PAINTED TURTLES

MARSH MARIGOLDS

Marsh Marigolds Caltha palustris

Don't mess around with this beautiful plant,
 I have book that says even the leaves can cause the skin to blister.

Hurkett Cove Conservation Area, May 10, 2012, complete with butterfly.
Original photo has been resized by pixels to get on this blog,
 so sharpness is missing. I hope to find a happy medium.

I couldn't see the butterfly in my viewfinder.
 The plant itself was about 20 to 25 feet away, as you can see in the other photo
 it is hard to make out, even when you know its there.
  I have cropped this down  from the last photo.
