Thanks Chebeque2 - Yes they are endangered - So its important not to give precise location of the plants - There are plant thieves out there.
This could be the Cypipedium pubescens but I am fairly sure because of the open pouch!

Thanks Alice - Seeing a hillside peppered with these yellow lovelies is worth the climb and being alive.

Yes Lars you seem to be coorect in my investigation on the web always relates to water placement for the 'frog spawn" - Maybe some kind of newt like amfibian does this?

Happy Fertility everyone- These could be "Frog Sporn" (3rd photo reminds me of what I saw as a child at the edge of ponds in England)?

Greta, I'm using a book from the Cleveland Museum of Natural History " Dragonflies and Damselflies of North-East Ohio" - ISBN: 978-1-878600-11-0 It has promotion from the The Forest Stewardship Council. I like it because it provides several pages in the back of the wire spined book of the profiles in colours and types (male and female). But I looked up Maryland dragonflies on the web to check out the ID on this one.
