Pinhook bog
Mom signed us up for the 1-hour tour this morning at Pinhook bog. Here are some carnivorous flowers that trap insects by getting them to stick to the tips.
The bog is a clay bowl left by the last ice age 14,000 years ago. It's been filling up for the last 4 thousand years, and currently has enough moss on top that even oak trees manage to grow in the middle. What the children liked best however was the blueberries that grew all along the trail where we walked.
