Salt Spring Photographer John Cameron
Fresh Daisies
On our morning walk in the highlands yesterday, Cameron and I were looking to see if a first Daisy had reared it’s pretty head. And this little bunch was first up, just in time for Mother’s Day.
This is an iPhone snapshot; wasn’t sure it would work—even for the web—as the flowers were doing a little dance in the wind.

Once the land has been cleared and the sun wakes up the dormant Broom seeds (I’m told the seeds can lie dormant for up to 60 years…) It only takes three to four years to create a fast spreading scene like this.
We’ve seen Broom before on the Salt Spring Photo of the Day (June, 2012). See also Royal BC Museum’s Aliens Among Us.

Stunning colours this Easter!
