Chamaenerion angustifolium (fireweed)

Fireweed is a common native plant throughout temperate forests of the Northern hemisphere. I love fireweed's intense pink color and the four curly stigmas it uses to trap pollen. Unbelievably, each plant produces 80,000 seeds and each seed has a tiny filament waiting to catch a passing breeze. If a seed lands on bare land, it sends out underground roots and eventually forms a large patch.

Imagine my surprise when I discovered this healthy specimen growing at the well-manicured entrance to Stanley Park. Somehow I don't think that Vancouver Park Board staff planted this fireweed here. As Yogi Bear used to say, "I don't think Ranger Smith is going to like this, Boo Boo."

Do you consider your eyes blue or green?

When Dead Boy Detectives was filming in Vancouver, did you get to do any tourist things? Did you get to try Tim Hortons? Did the cast get to see a hockey game?

Tricyrtis hirta (hairy toad lily)

This species of toad lily is native to southern Japan where It grows on rocky cliffs and shady stream banks. It's orchid-like blossoms open in the autumn when most other flowers have packed it in for the season. These photos were taken this afternoon in Vancouver's Stanley Park.

It’s rare to see marine mammals so deep in the Harbour, but maybe the sea lions wanted to join rowing practice!
