Six ANPE members joined Susan for a short but very pleasant hike in the Chamber’s Grove area on the afternoon of Saturday, June 6, 2026, to view a couple of clusters of Greater Yellow Lady Slippers and many specimens of the somewhat less common Small Yellow Lady Slippers.
Most of the Slippers were in full bloom, and the distinctions between the two varieties were fairly clear in most cases.
We also saw lots of Nodding Trilliums, Canada Mayflowers, Jacks in the Pulpit, and several instances of Wild Clematis, among several other wildflowers. Miscellaneous discoveries included a recently-deceased Ring-necked snake and a flattened frog, also recently-deceased.
