Many of the beach trees are dying due to the invasive disease. Shelf fungi are taking advantage of the situation. Some of the dying beach trees have hundreds of new shelf fungi.
The forests near Sable Falls are filled with trilliums.

The trillium below has four instead of three petals.
I love marsh marigolds, too.
The ferns are all coming up.
And the butterflies are flying around.

Erosion along the Grand Sable banks is more severe than I have ever seen it.
On the way back to the car Jamey found this frog along the river.
