I can see from your photos that the clinchweed is still blooming.
Because the prairie clover is in the shade,it's hard to tell the color. Is it pink or purple? The broad swath of flowers is very nice regardless of color, of course. Is this display courtesy of abundant recent rainfall, or does this happen each year?
Looks like you still have low humidity based on the deep blue sky. Enjoy it, even if you have to cut your walk short for errands.
The prairie clover is a purplish color, Scott. Yes, the rain is responsible for the greater number of prairie clover plants, but we generally have them blooming this time of year--just not in such large quantity.
