August Color along Otter Creek
The corn field along Otter Creek hides its best color underneath the stalks.
Blue seems to be the rarest color of all…
The pink is especially vibrant next to the red clay soil.
These red wildflowers grow from beneath the water’s surface where the creek is most swift.
This large meadow along the creek seems quite urban after a recent mowing.
A small pond just above the creek reflects a cabin on a high bluff…
This lone apple on a small tree has a caterpillar guest…
A new log cabin next to Otter Creek blends in with its surroundings…
This Acer Maple tree shows signs of an early autumn along the creek…
I believe that the red plant along/in the stream is a Cardinal Flower, a member of the Bluebell family. It matches the description given in my North American Wildflowers Book. Nancy
Love the photos of the day…….morning glories are fabulous! I like that red cabin!
Thanks Patsy

Wonderful pictures of your morning hike. The colors are so vibrant, favorite is the blue of the morning glories. What a cozy cabin, like how it does blend into the green around it. Guess Hunter isn’t up to par, since I only see Buddy, tagging along. So enjoy seeing all that beauty around you.
