Wow! What an opportunity to get to imagine ourselves on a Wolf Road walk with Floyd Swink himself. Deepest gratitude to all involved in making this available.

I first got to know Floyd when I was about 13. He was an incredible resource. I miss him dearly.

To be honest, I've only known "Swink" from Plants of The Chicago Region, by Swink and Wilhelm. After seeing this video I wish I had known of the man much earlier. This prairie walk is fantastic. Thank you for posting this, and to Cynthia Gehrie and Larry Godson for filming this gem, and to Valerie Spale for producing.
