Pacific Madrone, Madrona, Arbutus menziesii, red bark peels, Vendovi Island, Washington.

Red bark of the Pacific Madrone or Madrona (Arbutus menziesii) peals in a pattern to reveal a new yellow-orange layer, on Vendovi Island, Skagit County, Washington, USA. Vendovi Island was named after a Fijian High Chief Ro Veidovi who was brought to North America by the 1841 Wilkes Expedition. The San Juan Preservation Trust, a land trust for conservation in the San Juan Islands, purchased the island in December 2010 from the family of John Fluke Sr. Vendovi Island lies across Samish Bay from mainland Skagit County, between Guemes Island and Lummi Island, in the Salish Sea.
