i've never seen an echidna, but they so captivated me that i published this 'ode to echidnas' - perhaps you'd appreciate it.

'Bluebead' is a much better common name than the one by which i first learned to id this plant, 'clinton's lily,' named after the son of a genocidal war criminal who massacred Haudenosaunee to 'open up land' in NY and PA. anyway, a beautiful wildflower with a redeemed label. merci.
