(It all ends well for all involved 🤣but Meredith was a bit concerned it was following her🙀). This is one of the pack that has been singing for us all summer 🐺 second picture is cropped - neither Meredith or Jake wanted to go for a close up. There is a den site not far from here - we've seen puppies in these fields all summer. One of the horse jumps was decorated (briefly) with a large stuffed Snoopy.

Beautiful and a little other worlds and common in our woods. We called them Indian Pipe, but they are more correctly termed Ghost Pipes...
It’s a ghost! The ghost pipe (also called ghost flower or corpse plant) can be found in most of Ontario. Unlike most plants, it does not produce chlorophyll (which makes plants green and allows them to capture energy from sunlight). This parasitic plant uses a large network of roots and fungi to steal energy from nearby plants. #MNRFscience
