wild strawberry

This little gem caught my eye as we were packing up to leave the campsite. I walked by it and then I had to come back and take a closer look.

Why is this beautiful?
It is so tiny and cute and the colour popped out among all the green weeds. I love how it was small but it caught my eye and made me pay attention. I should do that more in life. I think we are sent messages but we don't pay attention to the snags.

​I'm not sure if birds or rodents eat the wild strawberries but I'm sure it is food for some wildlife. Maybe bears? We know there are black bears in the area and I imagine they will be looking for their fill of berries soon! Hopefully not on our campsite.
