Purple and yellow power
KEJIMKUJIK NATIONAL PARK SEASIDE ADJUNCT - - Would you believe orchids growing in the wild in Nova Scotia. Here's proof. This is a marsh orchid. It looks pretty good considering the 50's temperature, the wind and overcast sky. We saw quite a few of them on a hike we took. We also saw, but didn't think to photograph some 'picture plants' which are similar to the venus flytrap in that they are carnivorous. Lydia would have really liked to get a pic of me with my fingers being munched by a plant.
