Little Fox is an aspiring botanist who is beary interested in
wild flowers... so we went out for an early morning flower hunt!
Hmmm... this isn't a flower but... it sure looks weird.
We think it's a big fluffy rosette of thistle leaves... although it could be a triffid too!
Nice farm fence but... where are the flowers?
Creek is flowing well... lots of rain lately...
Which is good for the plants... green leaves!
And then we found this... it looks like an abstract painting... but is algae in the water!
Cool...
Kind of mesmerizing...
But still no flowers...
Oh here we go!! This is Oregon Grape which is kind of appropriate since Little Fox is from Oregon.
It's beary pretty... and the berries do make an excellent jelly.
Ahhh daffodils... they grow wild along the highways and byways... so we're counting them....
Cute!!!
And beary pretty...
Sometimes stuffies just need to stop and check out the flowers.
Hmmm... this one is interesting...
But we don't think it's a wild flower either...
We think it's a quince bush...
Ah, here we go... but after more research, these are Glory in the Snow which is a bulb introduced to BC! Eesh...
We do have to note that it was quite cool this morning... there was even frost on some of the leaves.
Ah, flowers... Magnolia... not wild either.
Nor is this forsythia bush... but it sure is pretty...
Will Sandy and Little Fox ever find some wild flowers??
Stay tuned!
