Windflowers tend to be white, but sometimes you come across a beautiful deep pink one, like this one photographed at Bow Valley Provincial Park on June 27th on a windy day!

A macro shot of a small, unopened Windflower that was growing near Forget-me-not Pond, Elbow Falls Trail, Kananaskis, on July 1st. These flowers can vary from white to quite a deep pink.

Saw these Western Anemone seedheads on 25th July 2009, on the Pocaterra Cirque trail, Kananaskis. I love it when some of the seeds have blown away, revealing the central pattern of the seedhead - quite attractive. "The flowers are short lived, and are soon replaced by a feathery white seed head. Attached to each seed is a long feathery strand. When still on the plant, it almost appears as a blond wig. This has spawned a local nickname: 'hippie on a stick'. From MountainNature.com.
