Forget-me-nots
Lily in the brook at Tannery Falls
"Early spring is salamander season" . . . as written by Michael J. Caduto,
author of Storey's Catch the Wind, Harness the Sun, in Mass Audubon's
Sanctuary magazine. In one 40-minute walk, I saw at least
two dozen of these bright-orange salamanders!

Wild violets
This white-flowering shrub is abundant in
New England forests, but its name is unknown to me.

My advice: get outside, take in the sights, and breathe in the scents!

Thank you for a lovely post! Your first picture is not of forget-me-nots. Forget-me-nots have five petals, and yours have only four. Your picture is of bluets, which are very similar in color but have four petals.
It was the salamander picture that took me back to my younger days when I would go looking for them in the woods and swampy areas where I lived. Thank you for the post!
