Hullo! I am on the hunt for the Bog Bird's Foot Trefoil... a red-listed species in Canada... it is a flower belonging to the pea family and... I think I spotted some!
See... right there... in that little puddle...
There it is!! It's yellow with a bit of white...
Like this...
There's another one but it's not blooming yet.
Oh wow... a whole clump of them!
This is sooo cool!
It's a beary fascinating flower - with like a whorl of blooms forming the flower itself....
Like that...
And now that I've spotted one, I found a few more... This is early in the season for them so there are still a lot of ones to open yet.
I can't get enough pictures...
Here's another one...
And then there's more...
Right here along this puddle...
Where the ATVers have been driving... grrr...
By this rock...
I bet there will be more here in a few weeks...
This is beary cool and I'm glad we got a chance to see these flowers today. They are endangered in BC and their habitat is shrinking all the time because of invasive weeds and off-road activities...
They are quite common in Washington and Oregon though... maybe my pal Little Fox has seen them? To be continued...
I am living vicariously through your outdoor outings...
