Territorial dispute between two females. Interestingly, their two partners were simultaneously doing it too.

Observed and photographed by Fabian Gonzalez. This appears to be an un-described species. Hairs on petals do not match those of Viola atropurpurea, which very rarely has yellow flowers. The plant seems more similar in the shape of the rosettes and hairs on petals to Viola skottsbergiana, a plant with white petals and similar markings on the lower petals.

Seems to match this observation found a short distance to the south on Nevado de Longaví.
https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/77911856
In 10th photo, Nevado de Longaví, can be seen in the distance.
Growing at an altitude of 2980 m.
The population consists of thousands of plants that are all consistently yellow or yellow-orange colored.
Other yellow flowered species in the Section Sempervivum include V. auricolor, which has smaller, more loosely arranged rosettes, and larger flowers compared to the size of the rosettes. It grows far to the south of this location.
Viola coronifera has yellow flowers that are arranged at a different angle on the rosettes.
Observación y fotos por Fabian Gonzalez.
Parece que es una especie desconocida. Los pelos de los pétalos son diferentes de los de Viola atropurpurea. Es mas parecido en la forma de las rosetas y en los pelos de los pétalos a Viola skottsbergiana, que tiene pétalos blancos con manchas parecidas.

Parece bastante parecido a esa observación del Nevado de Longaví, que está unos 30 kilometros al sur:
https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/77911856
Crece a una altura de 2980 msnm.
Otras violas de la sección Sempervivum con flores amarillas incluye Viola auricolor, que tiene rosetas mas pequeñas, con hojas no tan apretadas, y flores mas grandes en comparación al tamaño de las rosetas. Esa especie ocurre muy al sur.
Viola coronifera, que ocurre mas cerca al sur, tiene flores amarillas que salen en angulo diferente en las rosetas en comparación a esa especie.

Drama. These guys all normally get along pretty well, but here a squirrel decided to start something and nearly got kicked in the head as reward. Moments later they were back to munching sunflower seeds side-by-side again.

I have no idea what is going on in these pics. First lot of pics taken in the field. I then brought the bug home in a bag with plant specimens, and it changed from the Selago to the Monopsis en route. I took photos throughout the day.

First iNaturalist record.
With Graham Armstrong, Pete Ellis, Steve Guy, Guy Langan, Paul Harvey, Phil Heath, Ian Lewis.
Seen for more than an hour after dawn, in a small loose group of Eur. Curlews, feeding in a short-grass field on the south side of the main lake. This was "limpy" - the bird that had been shot about 3 weeks earlier, but seemed to make a recovery.
This location is the last known wintering site for this species. The last record from here was in February 1995.
Here is a link to the last video taken at this site, in January 1995:

A first for the UK ~ Bird was taken into care and sadly died in the night only weighing 50g ~ I believe the average is about 86g. Sad end to an incredible journey!

3 to 4 adults encountered and observed from a respectful distance. Followed ethical viewing guidelines of keeping distance and watching for signs of stress such as standing up and alarm whistles.
Watched with Simone for about 15 minutes from a nearby hill when all of a sudden we heard loud calls coming from an obscured bushy area. We initially interpretted these as an alarm call and were getting up to go when we spotted 2 adults aggresively fighting. Hard to tell through the brush but they seemed to be on their hind legs biting each other on the nose. Made an audio recording of the fight and holy hell it was something to see. Image #4 you can just make out the fight. Once they quited down one of the pair came up on a log and had a visible gash on its nose, see pictured. Over the 15 seconds I photographed the individual bleeding increased and poured down to its mouth. What appears to be a scar on the right side of its face makes it seem this is not their first fight, but then I don't know much about Vancouver Island Marmot behaviour.
At any rate, absolutely incredible to finally see this Critically Endangered species and feeling incredibly grateful to the Marmot Recovery Foundation who has worked tirelessly to save this species from extinction! Those metal clips on the marmot's ears are just one sign of the work they do, and I believe indicate this is one of the individuals they raised in captivity and released into the wild. At any rate, to hear more about their work, have your Marmot questions answered, and donate to a great cause, you can go to marmots.org
