Yes, the red-flowering currants are blooming. And the salmonberries. I found them on Baikie Island, all through the bush.
 |
| Ribes sanguineum. The leaves are starting to unfold now. |
 |
| The flowers come in red, ... |
 |
| ... pink, ... |
 |
| and sometimes in palest pink. |
 |
| Salmonberry, Rubus spectabilis. More leaves than flowers now. |
 |
| With these, the colour of the flowers is consistent. Berries may vary. |
And there were birds everywhere, bouncing and flitting through the undergrowth, diving and just dawdling in the slough. Next.

Pues sí; ya están en flor las grosellas. Y las salmonberry (bayas de salmón). Las encontré entre los arbustos en la isla Baikie.
- Grosella de flores rojas, Ribes sanguineum. Ahora se están abriendo las hojas.
- Las flores pueden ser rojas ...
- O color de rosa ...
- O casi blancas, con un poco de color de rosa.
- Salmonberry. Rubus spectabilis. Hay muchas hojas nuevas, pocas flores.
- El color de las flores de salmonberry no varía mucho. De las frutillas, sí.
Y por dondequiera había pájaros, botando y volando entre los arbustos, buceando o nada más pasando el tiempo en las lagunas. Eso, para más tarde.

I'm having to moderate all comments because Blogger seems to have a problem notifying me. Sorry about that. I will review them several times daily, though, until this issue is fixed.
Also, I have word verification on, because I found out that not only do I get spam without it, but it gets passed on to anyone commenting in that thread. Not cool!
