Wet Feet - Dry Feet - Three Days in Buchanan County

Kristy and I enjoyed part of the past three days in Buchanan County camping at Fontana Park. Since we were so close, I spent plenty of quality time exploring the Rowley Fen. It would be easy to share probably hundreds of images, but I am going to do my best to share only some of my favorites.

When I photograph plants at a fen, I remember how “fen plants” prefer to have wet feet (fen soil is saturated). Today’s photos feature plenty of “wet feet” plants. I am also sharing a plant species or two that prefer dry feet - as in thriving in a typical prairie setting.

Here we go… let’s look at pictures!
