Wildflowers in Banff’s Sunshine Meadows

Today’s photo comes from the most wildflower day of my 56 years of existence. We hiked almost 10 miles and had wildflowers for most of them. Sometimes there were so many wildflowers my brain felt like it would explode. So many different ones too. We saw at least a dozen different varieties of wildflowers amongst the thousands (millions?) of total wildflowers.

I didn’t realize this at the time, but our hiking started in Alberta, crossed into British Columbia for three or four miles, and then ended up back in Alberta.

Canadian geese in Calgary, Alberta, Canada

You know how there are numerous things named after a country that aren’t really from that country? You’ve got your French fries, Spaghetti Bolognese, Greek yogurt, turkey, etc. Well, it turns out that if you go to Canada in the summer, you really will see lots of Canadian geese. In the winter, I understand, there are none in Canada though.
