A large white trillium (Trillium grandiflorum) which, confusingly, in this case is pink. The normally white flowers turn pink as they age, but there is also a rare variety that is pink from the moment it blooms. A woodland plant that flowers in mid to late spring. The seeds have an oily attachment called the elaiosome that ants find irresistible. The ants carry the seeds back to their nests, feed on the elaiosomes and abandon the rest of the seed near the nest where some will sprout. The white trillium is the floral emblem of Ontario.

A solitary orange butterfly weed growing in the long grass. This is a member of the milkweed family, and is often visited by butterflies, bees, and, I'm told, by humming birds. Don Mills Valley, North York, Toronto.

Happy New Year- The very best wishes for 2016 Innukshuks (or innuksuks) are stone piles or carins originally made by the indigenous people of the Arctic. They vary from very simple to extremely elaborate structures . According to Wiki they served many different uses but were often landmarks or signposts on the tundra. The idea has caught on, and wherever you go in Canada, if there are rocks and space to spare someone is likely to pile up an innukshuk. But just like graffiti, you never see who did it. This one was in the Don River Valley in Toronto.
