The Ohio Department of Natural Resources lists Lake Katharine State Nature Preserve as being one of the nine state nature preserves in Ohio that are among the best for seeing spring wildflowers. Having never been to this nature preserve in Jackson County, we decided to see what was blooming there in mid-April.

Thanks, Roberta. Did you get a chance to go out Sunday? The weather was just lovely.
Special thanks to You giving also Latin names!!!
Your welcome, Sartenada!
Beautiful photos!
Thank you, Karen!
Some of my favorites are in this collection. The wildflowers don’t last as long as I would prefer. If you hesitate you may miss them.
Since the spring wildflowers seem to disappear before you know it, it’s hard to decide which places to go to this year to see them.
Gorgeous wild flowers!
Thanks, marviiilous!
Guess what? I saw an unusually light-colored squirrel last week. Since Rusty lives near you, I decided to call this one “Blondie.” 😀
