At our neighbor's creek, the trout lilies are in bloom. Like Dutchman's breeches, trillium, and spring beauties, trout lilies are spring ephemerals. Their common name comes from mottled leaves resembling a brook or brown trout.
Trout lily accompanied by a blue jay and chickadee. The jay is mimicking a hawk. The chickadee mating call sounds like "cheeseburger".
