Something Amazing Happened.

I found a flower blooming!!!!

HOORAY!

Spring is starting to take over here in the central Cascades!!

This is a Trillium of some sort. Western Trillium (Trillium ovatum) is the main species around here, but this little beauty and its neighbors are a bit smaller than expected. Trilliums are in the Lily family, whose flowers (petals and sepals) come in groups of 3. I tried to get a close-up of the inside of the flower, but it was blurry. I will try again after work. ;)
