I saw a flash of color on the side of the road when I crossed the street to get my mail. I didn't have my camera with me so I picked one to take a pic inside.
Native red columbine (or western columbine, or Sitka columbine).
Very cool looking blossoms! There are quite a few growing along the road, but unfortunately not on my side of the road.
