Today, we took a short excursion up to the continental divide. Macdonald, Priest, and Mullan Passes. Picked up nine new flower species for the year. Blue Camas, and a white flowered version, Western Pasqueflower, Long-leaf Evening Primrose, Smallflower Penstemon, Slender Phlox, Streamside Bluebells, Western Meadowrue, and a few that the images were lousy. Still, very cool.
The Labrador found lots of water and mud to splash in and the folks we were walking about with found a large deposit of native clay. Toss in all the Pine Siskins and Vesper Sparrows and it was a very pleasant day, indeed.
A good time was had by all!
Nature, every day.
