Fork lift from my last photo walk.

Photo #153 ~ Pasque Flowers

My last good shot of the pasque flowers as we left the Fertile Sand Hills. This group was the only one to have any color at all. Which bothered me quite a bit. As memory serves I have always found them to be very blue, and yet these are a light purple. Well considering the last time I saw them was in my youth I consider myself lucky.

Photo #152 ~ Pasque Flower #2

Another pasque flower from the Fertile Sand Hills which I captured in detail here. Strangely enough the flowers lacked any color at all. Which is quite abnormal from my understanding the flower.

Photo #151 ~ Pasque Flower #1

The one nice thing to come of our trip to the Fertile Sand Hills was finding the Pasque Flowers were blooming. A very rare sight this far north and this late into this years spring.

Photo #150 ~ Canopy To Be

This shot from the Fertile Sand Hills struck me as odd. The trees had grown so closely together to form what I could only describe as a tight canopy which would not form for at least another month.

Photo #149 ~ Stand Out

Last Thursday we went hiking at the Fertile Sand Hills where we trekked each packing a camera in hand and a bag of treats at our sides we set off down the trail. Once we hit the Oak Savannas, an aptly named portion of the trail, the environment changed abruptly. Going from dense forest yet to come to life into a vast plain of sloping hills, brushed prairie and oak after oak standing dormant. This one struck me as being particularly brilliant and in post I accentuated that fact.

Photo #148 ~ Dispenser Truck

The last shot from my Wednesday photo walk turned out to be the back of some kind of dispenser truck which distributes some agricultural agent. But what I have no idea.
