Yuhas Woods
Today was the INPAWS walk at Yuhas Woods. Yuhas is a Red Tail Conservancy property in Randolph County, IN. Dr. Ruch and Dr. Torke from BSU led the walk. It was a nice day to be in the woods.
Panax quinquefolius - American ginsengThere were several in fruit in the woods.
Pseudacris crucifer - Spring PeeperI saw several of these guys in the woods.
Scutellaria incana - hoary skullcap
Pleurotus ostreatus - Oyster MushroomI was tempted to bring some home to eat, but I figured that might be awkward with a large group. They are supposed to be very good to eat.
Ilex verticillata - common winterberryThis shrub, along with Buttonbush, was growing very thickly around the sedge meadow.
Polygonum amphibium - water knotweedPretty flowers when you look up close.
Bidens coronata - crowned beggarticks

Sound like a fun trip. I was quizzing myself when looking at the photos before looking at the names, and the Polygonum had me stumped for a few seconds before I figured it out. I guess I've been remiss in looking at the flowers of Polygonum up close.
