Just returning from a week long field work adventure around the Kingston/Perth area of Ontario and will be posting pics of our field work in another upcoming thread.
Our base camp was at one of my buddy's/colleagues cottage. He also recently aquired a lot of 26 acres that is within 10 min drive of his cottage. After making me help him plant 24 fruit trees and build a shed, we had a great little walk around his property. Lots of wildlflowers and a few macro critters.
The trilliums are in full bloom out there this year and it is a bumper crop. They come in three colours - white, pink and deep purple. The white ones sometimes switch to a pink flower in the second year, while some flowers come up pink or purple on their first flowering.
More wildflowers
A view of the terrain - perfect for hiking!
The lot has 3 different wetland sections, two support sedges and the third one cattails (not shown)
