John, Claire and their dog Cloe took a walk on Saturday afternoon. The flowers in the shaded valley behind our house has a spring fed stream that runs year round. Cloe was excited to romp in the water and get a drink. The orange jewelweed (Impatiens capensis) is blooming on the banks of the stream and several Great Blue Lobelia (Lobelia siphilitica) were in bloom nearby. Looks like the bumblebee had been visiting the jewelweed. Both below ... Also, further below was a small brownish butterfly ... maybe an Appalachian Brown or Little Wood Satyr or Carolina Satyr ... still undecided ...
