Local Walk, April 2011

While out running, I spotted some wildflowers, so I came back later to snap some quick photos.

	Colt's Foot (Tussilago farfara) is a weed, but it's interesting to photograph.
	In spring, there are usually no leaves visible, just scaly bracts along the stem.
	One more photo of colt's-foot.
	Another early wildflower: Eastern skunk cabbage (Symplocarpus foetidus)
	Catkins of "pussy willow" (Salix discolor)
	The abandoned radar tower on Prospect Hill. Compare this other photo.
