Pioneer

On sandstone exposed when the river goes dry, underwater come the fall rains, a bluebell plant homesteads in a sheltered corner, digging its taproot deep into the stone.

Common harebells, in the Oyster River bed.

I'm having to moderate all comments because Blogger seems to have a problem notifying me. Sorry about that. I will review them several times daily, though, until this issue is fixed.

Also, I have word verification on, because I found out that not only do I get spam without it, but it gets passed on to anyone commenting in that thread. Not cool!
