Sept. 17: Purple flower; Black-Eyed Susan; Awesomely Cool Mushroom
2011.09.17
We went up to a nature center that just opened (last week) not too far from here. I hope to be volunteering (or working ::fingers crossed::) there soon, so Patrick and I checked it out.
It's a mighty cool place--the building is built to LEED Platinum specifications and there are really fabulous exhibits there. They have a native flower garden with a cute little purple flower that looks like some variety of bergamot (but I didn't put the slightest bit of effort into identifying it) and Black-eyed Susans, which are the state flower. And a cute nature trail--it's not long but it goes through a neat bit of woods, past and over a creek, along the Middle Patuxent River, past the ruins of an old mill-race. Yesterday it also had the coolest mushroom I've seen in a while off to the side of it...

Beautifully composed flower pics. The detail of the mushroom is fantastic, all those neat little goosebumps all over it :) Hope you get the volunteer job!
