One of the most primitive of plants, horsetails look as if they belong in a Jurassic Park movie, albeit of a much greater size than we now see them. This one is just beginning to emerge from the soil.

All sorts of things to see and to look forward to! The nomada bees should be out any day, and of course, butterflies! I've seen lots of mourning cloaks, compton tortoiseshells, and eastern commas, but none thus far at FWG, though I know they must be there.
