Ladybug on Death Camas

A handful of us spent the morning walking on the Ranch property belonging to Erik Butters, out past Cochrane, NW of the city. The plants that were growing there were recorded, as were the birds that were seen or heard. The photo that I uploaded after this one shows what Erik's land is like - rolling, open hills covered in wildflowers and areas of woodland. There were quite a lot of Death Camas growing, shown in this photo. So enjoyable to explore a beautiful place like this. Around noon, Erik and his partner provided a great BBQ for us and for the people who had joined us from elsewhere. The food was delicious! Thank you so much, both of you!
