Marquette Park has many varieties; the Island is home to over three hundred species of lilacs
This image is the essence of Mackinac - horses, water, Round Island lighthouse, lilacs, the ferry dock and if you look closely on the dock, a bicycle rider.
The blooms are quite early this year, unfortunately, it's unlikely we'll have any left for Lilac Fest in mid-June, but we'll enjoy them now - there's just no where on earth like Mackinac when the lilacs are in bloom!

i have lots of lilacs on my property. my gramps was born here so many are over 100 years old. you took an amazing close up - i envy your time on the island.
