Another day at Haverford Reserve for a different set of trails
 |
| Erythronium americanum/Yellow Trout Lily |
 |
| Podophyllum peltatum/Mayapple |
 |
| Tree planting along the Lenape Trail |
 |
| Bridge over North Brook |
 |
| Trails go under I-476 at Darby Creek |
 |
| Now on the Backwoods Trail, with an uprooted tree |
 |
| Argh... the photo does not show all the shing mica |
 |
| Someone placed ramps to give access over a fallen tree |
 |
| Oops... good thing we did not take the Railroad Trail above, as the bridge has totally collapsed |
 |
| Perhaps a vernal pond |
 |
| Only Sloane was willing to go ahead through the wet mud, but we turned back on the dead-end Grace Trail |
 |
| The Backwoods Trail is in danger of being overgrown by the invasive Rosa multiflora |
 |
| Parts of the trail parallel I-476 |
 |
| Some fresh Daedalea quercina/Maze Bracket |
 |
| Climbing up to the Railroad Trail at the collapsed bridge |
 |
| Looking back over the collapsed bridge section |
 |
| The woods are waterlogged on the north side |
 |
| Surrounded by water at the east of of Railroad Trail |
 |
| Railroad bridge abutments crossing Darby Creek; we were unable to access the Blue Route Trail from the end of the Railroad Trail, so we backtracked |
 |
| Viola epipsila/Dwarf Marsh Violet; there were also purple and yellow wild violets |
 |
| Picked up the Blue Route Trail at the beginning of the Backwoods Trail; Darby Creek |
 |
| Cercis canadensis/Eastern Redbud Tree |
 |
| Redbud buds and blossoms |
