Delicate Elephants

Numerous miniature trunks extend and curl outward from the flowering stalk of an Elephant's Head (Pedicularis groenlandica) in the James Peak Wilderness, Colorado. The Elephant's Head is quite possibly my favorite member of the Lousewort genus, though I admit that I am not familiar with them all.

 

Happy Thanksgiving to all in the U.S.! It's been another heckuva year but there is still much for which to be thankful.
