An old photo from my archives, taken at Edgemont Ravines in Calgary on 7th August 2006! I was using a Canon PowerShot S3 IS back then. Have to say that the Canon was my least favourite of any point-and-shoot that I have owned. Stiff Yellow Paintbrush is native to western Canada and USA. Uncommon, and semi-parasitic, probably on the roots of grasses. Yellow bracts surround each tiny, greenish flower. Thanks to Mark Egger for the ID!

This mystery Mustard was growing at Edgemont Ravines. I don't know if anyone can identify it for us. Of course, a macro shot gives such a false sense of size, which doesn't help at all.

Black Henbane is one of my favourite wildflowers, though all parts of this plant are poisonous and it is a weed : ). The flowers are a little creepy, but quite spectacular. Love the seedpods of this plant! It was introduced from Eurasia.
