Trout Lillies Hiding

I've been trying to get a picture of trout lillies or a week or more.  I'm usually out in the mornings when it's cold and they are closed up tight.  But I was able to get out this afternoon when it warmed up.  I couldn't find a decent patch of them until I was about to leave — and there they were, hiding behind a tree less than 50 feet down the trail.

On the Wildflower Trail in the Monte Sano Nature Preserve.  It's part of the Land Trust of North Alabama in Huntsville, AL.
