What a delight...Just one great find after another! What a delight to come for this walk with you. I think you are right about that Avens; the leaf looks like that of Rough Avens. Could that pale polka-dotted surface be the underside of a boletus mushroom? That plant with the little red worms in the axils? That is Yellow Loosestrife (Swamp Candles) and rather than have a seedhead where the flower spike was, it produces these little bulblets. You can plant them just like seeds. Thanks for the fascinating view of the Turtlehead's interior. And little visitor.<br /><br />Yes, it is a beautiful evening for a walk. A big moon rising, with Jupiter shining bright right near to it in the east. Last night Venus was like a bright lamp in the west after sundown.Jacqueline Donnellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13390548854179921303noreply@blogger.com
