Pollution

Walked around Fisher Meadow in Avon, CT today. First time in a while. The soccer fields have expanded, they fertilize the fields, and the pond is now a fetid, stinking mess. But there were still things to see.

Looks pretty, don't breathe through your nose

Slender Gerardia

Rhamnus cathartica - all natural internal cleanser

Lots of killdeers running around

Cute caterpillar with soft, venomous spines

Closed gentian

I wouldn't want to eat fish from that pond

Wild clematis and Goldenrods
