If you're following my trek around the botanic garden we've now crossed onto Evening Island. This is a steep hill to climb up on the trail around the island. The left hillside was covered with white cleome or spider flower and sunflowers. On the right a mound of our native Illinois coneflowers. Images of those last two upcoming. The sky was changing at this point from sun and bright blue to cloudy and overcast. By the time we left the garden that day it was drizzling.

I like how this fills the frame with all that greenery...the lean of those 2 tall trees in the background reminds me of bonsai trees surrounded with other trees and shrubbery...nicely captured, Kathy.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?
Well composed beautiful view Kathy. Nice and clear details in this shot too.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
I'm enjoying your trek, thanks for inviting us along.

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Lightfoot 1967
Great series, Kathy. This may be a contradiction in words: it's a very interesting series too.
Thanks for being the well informed guide on this tour trough the Botanic Garden!

Who's bright idea was it to cross spiders and flowers? I'm getting my shoe ready just in case they attack. A nice capture of the scene, Kathy. We can hopefully rest in the shade of the pines.
