Titmice all over the place; I assume these are families with newly fledged young. Wrens also very active. Carolina Wren loudly singing away: House Wrens widely scattered but numerous particularly around the edges of the marsh.
Here is a partial list of late spring and early summer flowers:
Nightshade
Venus' Looking-glass
Blue Toadflax
Heal-All
Common Ragweed
one of the Smartweeds
Common St. Johnswort
Wood-Sorrel
Hop Clover
Sundrops
Hawkweed (spp?)
Yellow Thistle
Deptford Pink
Dame's Rocket
Red and White Clover
Pasture Rose
Bouncing Bet
Common Milkweed
Orange Milk weed (Butterfly Weed)
Common Mullein
Most of these are meadow flowers and many of them are introduced species.
