Trillia

All Canada's park lands are closed. The hike I had planned for today, up the hills on the Canyonview Trail, had a sign at the entrance: No Entry. I ended up scrambling through the bottom lands, outside the park, among the mosquitoes and the mud puddles. But there were bonuses.

Trilliums, for one.

This one has pinkish petals.

And this one is almost pure white.

Messy leaves. The yellow spots on the petals are pollen. Maybe most of the mess on the leaves are, too.

I couldn't get around to the front of this one without wading in mud. But I liked the rear view, anyhow.

More swamp plants tomorrow.

Todos los parques nacionales de Canadá están cerrados por lo de la pandemia. La ruta que había planeado para hoy está cerrada; a la entrada hay un anuncio: Prohibida la Entrada. Terminé en las tierras bajas, fuera del parque, entre lodo y mosquitos. Pero ahí encontré muchas cosas buenas. Entre ellas, estos trilios blancos. (Aunque uno es de un color de rosa muy claro.)
