We have a friend who knows everything to know about wild orchids in Michigan. He knows about all the wild flowers in Michigan and many other things. We are lucky that he gives us tips every now and then about what is blooming and where to find it. We even get details like “make sure to pack your muck boots and bug dope for this one…”
We don’t know the Latin names and all the details but we do love to photograph these wild beauties. We look forward to each species each and every year. This might seem boring to photograph the same things each year but every time is different. Lighting is different, conditions are different (rain or sun), and sometimes we have a new lens to try out.
So far this year we have found several variety of trillium, dutchman’s britches, yellow and pink lady slippers, and more. I will let the images speak for themselves so scroll through and enjoy!
