Spring into Summer at the Indiana Dunes

The spring wildflowers are fading and summer blooms are making appearances at the Dunes. The last of the Lupines are producing their fuzzy seed pods for next years flowers.

Goatsbeard is also going to seed in big fluffy balls.

The scent of sweet clover is on the air and perky oxeye daisies brighten up the landscape.

Frogs lounge in temporary pools and puddles. 

And now that nesting duties are over, the robins enjoy a midday bath.  

Roses and birdsfoot trefoil join the June parade.
