"Birds, insects, and flowers - all in their own way tell a deep summer joy."
The Contemplative John Muir
Yesterday I discovered this Snow Buttercup blooming right out of a snowbank. It's amazing to me how much in a hurry alpine plant species like this buttercup are to begin their life cycle each season, almost as though they are filled with exuberance and joy at the prospect of being alive.
