A WALK ON A TRAIL IN GERMANY

Yesterday I shared my Niece's photos of her pet sheep.  I will have more of them soon but today I wanted to show you a few she took on a trail near their home.

This pretty wildflower looks like Mountain wood-sorrel.  It is a shade-loving species that thrives best at higher elevations.  Other names for it include wood shamrock and white wood sorrel.  I am not 100 percent certain as I am not sure about German wildflowers.  If anyone who lives there knows its ID, I would be grateful for help.  I will also ask my Niece next time we chat.


This is wild garlic. She said they took some home and had it in a dip for dinner.  She is an excellent cook, and no doubt in my mind it was delicious.

It looks like a lovely trail and the felled tree makes for an interesting shot.

This looks like Grape hyacinth, scientific name Muscari neglectum.
The bee seems to love it!





Always interesting sights to take photos of on a walk.  With thanks again to my lovely Niece for letting me share these photos.

Thanks for looking and enjoy your day.

    What a good path through the woods and then plenty of wildflowers to enjoy and wild garlic to gather. I appreciate the sharing. Thanks to your niece.

    She must have so much interesting nature around there! We have wood sorrel in the back yard! It has been here for over 30 years. And lots of Grape hyacinth as well, in the neighborhood.. we also have Purple Shamrocks.
