Pygmy-flower / Androsace septentrionalis

Pygmy-flower / Androsace septentrionalis
I did a bit search last night and thought I found the possible ID for this tiny alpine flower. I typed it under my photo on my computer, but then changed the title ready to upload to Flickr. Now, it won't let me undo the name, of course, so I guess I will have to leave this nameless for now. Photographed (macro) up on Plateau Mountain on July 2nd.

Just realized what this is! Of course, it's Pygmy-flower / Androsace septentrionalis - will add a previously posted image of a whole plant in a comment box.

Posting very late today (early evening). Just had a long and throroughly enjoyable day out at Frank Lake (situated about 50 km southeast of Calgary) and area, birding, but just about all my photos are of scenery, flowers, and insects, even a tiny frog : ) I love days like this, where you come across the unexpected. We saw some great birds, too, including a whole flock of in-flight White-fronted Geese (I believe this species was a lifer for me) and White-faced Ibis, but all were far, far away. Weather couldn't have been more perfect - and a great bunch of friends for company. And now I'm really hoping that there is still enough space on my hard drive to download today's images - if not, I will have to delete a couple of folders! Now I'm struggling to stay awake ....
