Special Hike

We went on a special hike today. Why was it special? We were taken to a location, that I will not name, to see some pink lady's slipper orchids. These are very few and are losing their natural habitat in most local areas due to the loss of the pine trees. Also they are sometimes dug up by some visitors.


We also saw another type of flower that I cannot remember the name at this moment. It was a kind of lily.


I also saw some sweet shrubs. I am adding a picture once I get them from Linda's camera (mine died so I borrowed hers!). This temporary is a picture I took on the Abrams Falls trail in April.
