Two varieties
of lilies are out. Here are Canada Lilies (Lilium canadense)
with multiple decumbent yellow to yellow-orange flowers and leaves
in whorls.


Wood Lily (Lilium philadelphicum) has a single,
erect red flower.


Common
Mullein (Verbascum thapsus) has raised its tall flower heads.

I suspect
this is Foxtail Grass in bloom (note the heavy load of pollen on the
stamens), but I haven't got a good guide to grasses and certainly
don't trust my memory. Here it's seen against a background of Swamp
Fly-Honesuckle berries.

A white
Azalea (Rhododendron sp.) is blooming in Raymond Brook Marsh.

This
is a species of Pyrola, perhaps Shinleaf (Pyrola elliptica).

An Eyed
Brown (Satyrodes eurydice).

Can't
resist a few more Water-Lily (Nymphaea odorata) photos.



Spotted
Wintergreen (Chimaphila maculata) doesn't have spots at all:
the leaves have pale stripes along the main veins. The flowers are
almost, but not quite open yet.

Horse-Nettle
(Solanum carolinense) is more often blue to violet. Note the
spines along the stem and each leaf's midvein. Many members of the
Nightshade family (Solanaceae) are toxic, including Tobacco; while
others are dietary staples (Tomato, Potato, Peppers).
