Anne Elliott's photos with the keyword: South-east of Calgary

I noticed this brightly coloured plant when I was on a bird outing on Sunday, south-east of the city, to the Wyndham/Carseland area, Langdon Reservoir and Weed Lake. I'm not completely sure, but I think this is Glasswort, also called Samphire. This species of wildflower grows at the margins of saline lakes and ponds, which is where I found this. It turns bright red in late summer.
