Chocloate Lilies

Chocolate lilies, Lake Clark National Park, Alaska.

I was amazed at the thick fields of Chocolate Lilies I found during my recent bear photo tour – I have never seen anything close to it!

Now I must admit, the rest of the group did not share my enthusiasm for this wildflower – especially in light of the other bountiful subject matter, namely wonderful brown bears!  So I received a fair amount of well deserved ribbing.  :)   But I did manage to break away for a couple of minutes to grab a few images of these interesting wildflowers.

It just shows us that everything brown and beautiful is not always a bear!!

Beautiful photo, Ron! When I was in Lake Clark Jenny was so happy when I told her I wanted to spend some time photographing wildflowers instead of bears. Sometimes it’s nice to take a break.

Thanks Scott! By the way I heard that Jenny and Drew are expecting their first child.
