The Female Flowers of the Pond or Watershield. I was lucky enough that the wind was blowing the fragile &ldquo;dock&rdquo; I was kneeling on close enough to these blossoms to get a reasonable photo. I have to believe that this is their first showing because the anthers are not displayed.<br /> <a href="https://www.jungledragon.com/image/150546" rel="nofollow">https://www.jungledragon.com/image/150546</a> Brasenia schreberi,Canada,Geotagged,Pond Shield,Spring,Watershield Click/tap to enlarge Promoted
