Wildlife Spotting

This might be Rue Anemone, Thalictrum thalictroides. Here are a couple of links. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thalictrum_thalictroides http://www.illinoiswildflowers.info/woodland/plants/rue_anemone.htm http://plants.usda.gov/core/profile?symbol=THTH2

Hi markiemccoy, you have some really pretty spottings here! Do you have any additional photos of this plant? For ease of identification, it is important to try to get photos of the whole plant. Close-ups of flowers are great but also include leaves and stems and a whole plant shot, if possible. Some plants have flowers that look very similar but the leaf shape or the way the plant grows are completely different. Sometimes something as tiny as a hairy stem vs a smooth stem can make the difference in a species. :-)

What a colour combination! Soothing pink and lovely green! :):)
