I was looking around in my front flower/rock garden today and was surprised to see there was already a plant that had flowered. This was very unexpected as nothing else has even began to show any signs of Spring. Obviously it is a Spring Ephemeral but hey, I'll take it. Bring on the Spring.

There's a good word for the day, "Spring Ephemeral"! Have a good one, Woody.

Yes, I found that Ammonite section near Trinidad, been a few years. The antlers came from a skull I found when I was out prospecting up around timberline. That reddish/brown rock on the left is a 10 pound chunk of Mahogany Obsidian. Great for making arrow heads.

Looks like a spider has wrapped up some of the flower buds before they opened up - it's the spider home or nest, so to speak. When you blow up the image, you can see the spider threads on the flowers to the low left of the "nest".

I think you're right Caveman.........eewwww, and after the butterfly flew away I stuck my nose on the flowers for a big sniff. slaphead.gif wacko.gif

Thanks Chris, macro shots are my favorite! I love being out enjoying the land and getting pics while I'm out there.

Don't worry, Mrs CP - the spiders only want bugs - not noses! Still, just think about what the spider saw..... ohmy.gif
