Life is full of delightful surprises…for those with an eye to see them. This image represents one of those moments.
My wife and I were on an early spring walk along a nearby wooded trail. I always take my camera and was on the hunt for wildflowers. Again, it was early spring – very early, and wildflowers were scarce. We felt blessed to find any. Then we came across this scene.
I have never encountered such a diverse group of early wildflowers grouped together in such a small space. These flowers are tiny; the largest one was no bigger than my thumbnail. The footprint of this arrangement was no bigger than the palm of my hand.
It was the floral highlight of our hike…and maybe of our spring.
