An assortment of things seen...

A raven feather; found near the home of the raven family nearby.

Twinflowers; a most delicate rambling flower with an incredible fragrance… for me, it is like smelling those tiny wild strawberries warming in the sunshine plus a dash of jasmine.

White flower Rein Orchid - a bit uncommon around here apparently and indeed, there was only one to be admired in the 7km walk. “Platanthera ephemerantha is considered vulnerable and is threatened by development and lumbering in North America.” - northamericanorchidcenter.org

Lumbering? As in lumbering humans on the path? Or perhaps logging? Or perhaps lumbering humans logging?

Band-Tailed Pigeon

I never see or hear this bird, but finding feathers is not uncommon where I walk. I also found a feather belonging to the Varied Thrush, a bird I do see everyday in winter.
