cow vetch

Rainy & cool. Three male orioles flitting around the bluebird nest in the back yard. Deer browsing in the fields in the evening. Cow vetch appearing. Cow vetch? How could anyone in their right mind name a wildflower cow vetch? That's not even the worst one. There is a white flower that shows up in May named Bastard Toadflax. You've got to be kidding. It's like naming your first born daughter Lazy Susan.
