Here's another spring flower that seems to be extra abundant this year. I've noticed more of these in a wider variety of settings than in past years. This is the Chocolate Lily (Fritillaria affinis). This one was photographed in Beacon Hill Park. It looks good enough to eat.

Situated on the far west coast of Canada, on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, Victoria is the capital city of the Province of British Columbia. Its benign climate (the warmest winters in Canada) and placid lifestyle make it a favorite retirement location as well as a popular tourist destination. About 400,000 people live in Victoria and adjacent communities.

It's entirely different. I can't recall if I've heard of that type of flower before.
They are in bloom here in the valley. They are so pretty!
