Marsh Cinquefoil / Comarum palustre

I've only ever seen this plant twice and I didn't succeed in getting decent photos either time : ) However, better than nothing and it was a treat to see it. It's called Marsh Cinquefoil for a reason - on both occasions, I was standing in water to photograph it, lol. This plant was growing in the area around the Medicine River Wildlife Centre, north of Calgary. We spent the day on July 24th botanizing the forest and open ground there.
