| 1 - Mid May, 2024: Although Tom Govus and I led a field trip here in 2023, I didn't take many photos; hence no 2023 album. May 20 looked like a good day to come back over here, so I made my first visit of the year. |

|
| Green Pitcher Plants (Sarracenia oreophila) I saw a lot of baby pitchers coming up. While I didn't specifically photograph them, some can be seen at lower left. |
