Look at THIS little pretty that grows between my house and the harbor!!! She's in bloom! My sister, a botanist, was visiting last summer and boy, oh, boy, did she get excited when she saw this Juncus arcticus!
It's tons of fun when she comes to stay because she brings all of her paraphenalia and takes over my house. I have grasses and junci and rushes hanging all over my house that she has labeled with brightly colored sticky-note tabs in the hopes that I would eventually learn them all! They make great decorations, and are certainly conversation pieces when someone comes to visit.
I am excited because it is a pioneer species! And, it is beautiful!

it is gorgeous! I love the little blooms. Great find! I'm no good at plant identification, so i hear ya - it's nice to have someone who knows their stuff nearby!
JN, She may be my little sister, but she is my mentor in all things nature, except birding. Her husband assumes that responsibility!! Thanks for stopping by. ~ks
Those little pink flowers look so delicate! Very pretty.
They are simply beautiful! Thanks for stopping by my blog.
What a lovely capture. I have trouble identifying all of the nature images I photograph.
Such a lovely scene!
Great capture.
