The colorful red Bee Balm is now in bloom throughout our parks and trails. Usually by early July the flower makes its annual showy appearance. This is a popular flower with Hummingbirds who probe the long flower petals with their beaks.
June 2015 has been a rainy month, not so enjoyable for humans but if you are a Wehrle's Salamander the rain is a good thing. Note the small snail attached to its head. We often find salamanders that have snails attached to them.
