Our days are getting shorter but our wildflowers and other plants are showing off here in Massachusetts. Take a wildflower walk with me - and see a couple of tiny critters too.

| The "down of a thistle" - the plant is prickly but the seeds are indeed downy. |
 |
| Meadowhawk dragonfly |
 |
| Tiny Green Peeper - only 1.5 inches. He was in my last blog, but had to add him to this one too! |
 |
| Last but not least - poison ivy, so pretty this time of year. |
