Squaw Run Creek July, 2011


Creek Wall


Driftwood


Reflecting Pool

Yesterday, I took an afternoon walk in the Squaw Run Creek.  It was beautiful and very cooling!  I saw two snakes, many minnows and some insects.  The Creek's shape and depth changes seasonally.  More photos in the flickr photostream.

Although I am not a gardener, I am a flower appreciator; especially wildflowers.  These were along Marvelwood Place tonight.

Trillium Trail, Squaw Run Road, Fox Chapel


Trillium


Virginia Bluebells


Skunk Cabbage

Visited the Trail today and if you want to see the Trillium in bloom, it is time to go!  This week, the weather is predicted to be warm and wet.  Heat depreciates this wildflower mecca.  Currently in bloom, I saw Trillium (three types), Spring Beauty, Virginia Bluebells, Cutleaf Toothwart, Trout Lilly, Jack-in-the-Pulpit and purple and yellow Violets.  Soon to blossom are Mayapple, Bloodroot, Iris and Broadleaf Toothwort.  More pictures in the flickr photostream.
