Beautiful! I like that you captured the little drops of dew or rain drops.
Thank you for posting, we will not be seeing those for another month or so here in upstate New York.
Your picture gets my hopes up for spring.
They are a protected species here in New York State. The purple ones (also called Wake-Robin) are more commom here but we have the white ones also.
My picture was taken on 4-28-11 but I think they will be coming out a little later this year because of the cold weather.
Please forgive me; I don't mean to hi-jack your thread, but I love taking pictures of flowers and wild flowers especially.

DH,
So you get the purple Trilliums (Wake-Robins) as well! Another beautiful picture. Thank you.
I have travelled thru the Blue Ridge mountains a few times but it has been about 25 years now.
You have a lot of maples down there as I recall.
I have often wondered if the weather there is conducive to maple syrup production.
Does it get cold at night (below freezing) with warm sunny days? That is what makes the sap flow so well up here. I assume if you do have a "sap season", it would be much earlier than here where it is just about to end for this year.
