I'm planning on being at Lake Alan Henry north of Post, TX this coming Saturday. I'll spend the night and leave Sunday. Being so early in the season, there won't be a lot of diversity, but my goal is to search for Anemones which only bloom in March/early April. But I'll be scoping the place out for a possible future bioblitz.
Anyone wishing to join me in the search for Anemones is welcome to come. Post here and/or send me a private message with a description of your vehicle (required by the on-site biologist so that she knows who's out there).
I have access to the restricted wildlife area north of the dam (permit required), and there is a camping area on the lake not far from there. Maps:

Just tagging a few folks...not omitting anyone on purpose, so don't feel offended! Anyone with the time and interest is welcome.
If I want to look for them closer to me (I live in the big thicket), what sort of habitat should I look in?
@lappelbaum, in east TX, you'll find two species A. berlandieri and caroliniana. The former can be found pretty much anywhere (lawns, cemeteries). The latter is found in sandy prairies (including cemeteries)--the key for caroliniana is sandy soil.
I so so so want to come, but I've got plans for this weekend already. So, you'll need to go ahead and observe everything that I would have observed if I were there. ;)
Oh, this sounds fun, but I already have plans for Saturday. Another time!
I also have plans this weekend, but keep your eyes open for A. kimberliei while you are out there. ;) I went to a prairie yesterday that underwent a controlled burn in November. It was UH-mazing to see all of the berlandieri in bloom and practically nothing else. Have fun!
Unfortunately a bit far for me currently, but thanks for the invite.
Thanks so much for the tag! I'd love to check it out, but I won't be able to make it Saturday.
Thanks for the invite Dr. Pfau but I will not be able to make it.
The Lake Alan Henry wildlife area is a spectacular place. Spent a lovely afternoon with @kayakqueen and @amzapp looking for Anemones--and we found quite a few!
