. I soon recognized them as Mayflowers (Trailing Arbutus), a most beautifully scented little wildflower. I have a favourite location where I find them each year, which I shall have to check on this week to see if thy are in bloomthere yet, but this is early for me to find such blossoms. Now I have another location to check on each year. As a young girl my best friend always seemed to find spring blossoms first, but now I know where to look and can share my exclusive information with others. It is such a joy to find wildflowers in bloom!.

What a beautiful day and new discovery of a tiny wild flower. Yes it smells good.
Beautiful flower and a great find.
I haven't thought of or seen Trailing Arbutus is many years. that would truly be a joy to see in the wild.
Beautiful, I have not seen may flowers in many years.
Beautiful flowers and the pictures. I will shortly be able to also view and share some of them - if the snow will give us a break.
May flowers are lovely...
It's so nice to find the wild ones

Beautiful flowers. I don't think I have ever seen those or didn't realize what they were is I did.

To walk with nature and see what she offers can give us a true sense of peace.Beautiful surprises as you explore your wooded area!
simply super that's all i can say, The photographer job is also comment-able.
The shy ones are the best finds, aren't they? Lovely photos.
What a pretty little flower and what a good eye you have to spot them :-) Finding flowers in the spring really makes up for the long winter months.
