Lady Slippers at the cottage

A group of five slippers.
We counted 20 lady slipper blooms at the cottage this past weekend.    It's fun to see how many we can find in our little patch of woods.
 
The lady slipper is PEI's provincial flower. I wonder if they are having a comeback of the ladyslipper.  For a while they were rare.  Seems that we are doubling our blooms every year.  I'm sure we have more, but on this day, it was damp and the bugs kept us moving.
