A trip up Green River Road was just the thing on a day that was finally warm. First interesting thing we saw the Stinky Spring next to the road. This spring is shown on old topographic maps of the area.

A Mourning Cloak butterfly on purple Phlox.

Can you find 2 Mourning Cloak butterfies?

The purple phlox was amazing. Gardens of blooming phlox lined the road.

Two Sandhill Cranes making their exit into the brush.

Western Tanager, perhaps a 1st year.

Two more Sandhill Cranes next to the Green River.

A female moose crossing the Green River.

The same moose made its way onto the bank.

The same warbler.

It was a beautiful warbler.
