		<description><![CDATA[I haven&#8217;t been very active on the blog this year, not because I haven&#8217;t been out and about, but more like I&#8217;ve been out and about too much. Even though I have added a few dozen wildflowers species to the photo collection, it seems I&#8217;ve spent more time this year on other activities. Invasive species, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Maybe I should subtitle this: Hope springs eternal Today I took a walk through an area of Long Lake Regional Park that I don&#8217;t get to often&#8211;the east side of Rush Lake, between the lake and Old Highway 8, a stretch of nearly a quarter mile. While the west side has some very nice plant [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today&#8217;s outing was a quest for yellow iris at Long Lake Regional Park. It&#8217;s a relatively new invasive species I first found growing there a couple years ago. I volunteered to hunt down all the spots it&#8217;s growing for the Ramsey County Cooperative Weed Management Area. I recorded about 30 spots with 1 or more [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I spent a couple hours at Long Lake Regional Park today. On the prairie, the prairie smoke and pussytoes are starting to go to seed, though there are still plenty of blooms left. The blue-eyed grass is blooming now, as is American vetch, lupine and Carolina puccoon. Bastard toadflax and golden alexanders are finally opening [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday I took a stroll around Rice Creek Trail North. I found a couple big colonies of field pussytoes blooming. At both sites, budding next to the pussytoes is what looks like bastard toadflax. Wood betony is budding, too, and should be blooming in another week or so. At Long Lake Park I found the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I took a couple hours off yesterday to take advantage of the good weather and trekked around part of Battle Creek Park, mostly to get photos of skunk cabbage while I still could, and to see how far along the kittentails were. Not much is blooming yet. Lots of bloodroot scattered around the woods, and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It was a beautiful day today and I took a quick tour around Long Lake Regional Park. In the woods by Rush Lake, I saw the kidney-shaped leaves of little-leaf buttercup coming up. They are one of the early bloomers. The first leaves are coming out on a variety of shrubs, too, mostly gooseberry and [...]]]></description>
