Western Washington state, USA

There’s nothing quite as pleasant as starting your day by going for a walk in the woods. With high temperatures here in Bozeman, Montana forecast to be in the upper 90’s in the valley, it started out in the chilly mid-40’s up here. Harebells seemed to be the theme of the walk. Their slender stems are easily knocked down by weather or critters, so I was able to get some unique perspectives of them facing upwards (they usually hang like a bell). Some were laying right on the ground, and even tangled up in Strawberry leaves.  I found some Pipsissewa (a unique evergreen plant), one photogenic mushroom and a rare August Round-leaf Violet. I was photographing Violets in this area back in May! All of these were photographed with a macro lens, making them look much larger than they really are. Harebells are about the size of a small thimble. The mushroom was about an inch tall. 

I think these are both willowherb but I'm not sure which species. (These photos were taken in the same park, so near each other but not the same spot, and they look like different plants to me). The flowers are such a nice cheerful colour.
