Tiny treasures
This is one of my favourite native wildflowers - White Camas. When I downloaded my photos from yesterday's day of botanizing at Sundre Natural Area (north west of Calgary) to my computer last night, and cropped this zoomed-in photo, I discovered there was a tiny spider hiding in there along with the gorgeous beetle. I have a better shot of the latter, showing its patterns, which I will eventually post. Don't you just love these rings of tiny green hearts? : )
"White camas (Zygadenus elegans) is a member of the lily family, and is commonly found in open areas and lightly wooded montane regions. Narrow, pale silver-green leaves at the base compliment the long, showy floral spike, which bears several individual creamy green six-petaled flowers. The bulb of this plant is poisonous, but not so much so as that of its relative, the death camas. Camas blooms from July through August." From en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:DwWhitecamus.jpg
