Marsh Marigolds
San Juan National Forest, CO
These pretty little flowers lie low to the ground in wet areas, such as this seep. Though these blossoms have 8 petals, I learned other plants of the species may have a different number.

Are human feet required for #FootpathFriday ? I'm guessing this "game trail" is likely caused by elk as I saw a small herd in the area.

Prairie Smoke and Bee

Yesterday I posted a photo of a group of these wildflowers. Today I give you a close up of a single flower cluster with a busy bee. One of my favorite photos from my camping trip earlier in the month.

Prairie Smoke
Uncompahgre National Forest, CO
From my camping trip earlier this month. These montane wildflowers grow low to the ground with the blossoms only 5- 6" high. In late summer they will tilt up to present feathery plumes from whence they get their "smoke" moniker.

First photo processed from last week's camping trip. Not super dynamic, but was fun to see this small herd. They were way far away so this is a heavily cropped image from a 420mm lens.
