As I was walking my dog Sandy, I saw a glimpse of yellow by my feet.
As ussual, armed with my handy Sony Cyber-shot, I simply had to take a photo
of this beautiful spring bloom. I have no idea what it is called. If you know, I would
really appreciate a note. The plant is only about a foot in height with one bloom.
They grow in cluster near the lake, more specifically by Georgian Bay.
Here is a quote for the last week of spring:
Everything is blooming most recklessly; if it were voices instead of colors,
there would be an unbelievable shrieking into the heart of the night.
by: Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters of Rainer Maria Rilke

I believe your flower is a lady slipper orchid. It certainly is a very pretty flower.
