Pacific Trillium, Western White Trillium, Wakerobin, Trillium ovatum
The Trilliums have just begun to bloom at the lower end of Munson Creek here in western Montana and despite the cold, wet spring they are just about on their usual schedule. There were only several in full bloom today, so the choice of subjects to photograph in the light rain was limited. In a few days to a week they should be blooming a few miles further up the canyon and I’m hoping for at least a little sun when I make the hike up there for some better photos.
The creek has a good flow of water and there is plenty of snowpack far up the drainage to keep the stream well fed all summer.
