Cyndee gave me suggestions where she had seen Baptisia before on the horse trails. So today, we went looking for them on one of the trails. We did do our mission today. On our five miles, five hours hike, we managed to locate several hundred plants of Cream Wild Indigo (Baptisia bracteata). Another successful day…

The wonderful rain over the last few days was most welcome. Our total was 1.88″. Wow, we all needed it! Keep looking! The more you know, the more you see and the more you see, the more you know.
Yesterday, a small group of us went to Dixon Water Foundation to prepare for an upcoming Prairie Seeker training class. So just like the LBJ NG, flowers seemed to behind schedule. Still it was grand to be there. If you would like to join us on May 14th for this event, there still are some…
