Sowthistle

This photo was taken yesterday, 8 September 2016, when our birding walk was at the east end of Fish Creek Park, in the Sikome area and also a little way along the river, south of Highway 22X. My main reason for going was that I was really hoping either to see one of the Black-crowned Night-herons that have been seen on several days, or that at least I could find out exactly where they had been seen. We saw three of them, all juveniles, but they were in the trees and extremely difficult to see and photograph. My next photo is being posted just for the record.
