Lady Slippers

While hiking the Dunes trail at Neys Provincial Park I came across these beautiful flowers. My first thought was these are Lady Slippers but then I thought they don't grow here. When I got home I looked them up and found they are Lady Slippers, also known as Moccasin Flower.

 

I have never seen a Lady Slipper in person. They are so pretty and would have loved to stay longer to photograph them however I forgot my bug spray and the bugs were attacking.
