Lots of wild lupins blooming now

I don't like to photograph flowers in bright sun, but I go along with whatever the butterflies want. Easy to see why they love the upward-facing tithonia.

This daylily started itself from a seed that fell to the ground. I believe the parents are two daylilies growing beside each other--just my speculation! I bought the older two daylilies in 1987--a few years ago I found the old catalog from Gilbert Wild and Sons.

murraysmom - the sprinkler looks very similar to the creations of a craftsman that would sell them at Quailcrest Farm, Wooster, at their Spring or Fall arts and craft faires. He would bring quite a few and they would all sell out before the day was over. Last year and this Spring, Mom and I made the comment that we hadn't seen him at the faires. He was elderly, perhaps he retired. I am sorry I never purchased one all those years.

A huge mystery vine in the compost pile. Cucumber? squash? pumpkin? gourd? Guess I'll have to wait to find out. Only one big bloom ready to open so far, with a bunch of others coming on.

Bighorn sheep, Badlands National Park, Interior, SD.

Dad?

Mom, triplets.

One had to catch up, but he seemed to be having a good time (projecting my feeling on it).

We have been visiting here every few years for almost 30 years. First time we've ever seen these here. usually we see them in Custer State Park, and didn't this year. Always a treat to see them.

Nita, she sure is a cutie!. I'm sorry that she is so far away that you can't see her every day!

What a great bunch of pictures today. as always.

Alisande, did you notice the "smiley face" in the eye of your butterfly pic of today? It's there. Here it is a little clearer in a pic of the Fritillary that I took a few years ago.

Jim, wasn't the Tampa Zoo where the orangutan recently escaped and had to be tranq'd and returned to her habitat?

Great pictures today. I love all the colors. So beautiful.

That is the place where it happened. The animal had climbed up a tree within the enclosure, and worked itself to another tree and then just dropped in with the visitors. So got freaked, and others took photos. The animal was tranquilized and returned to the enclosure. I really hope it happens again, it will really increase attendance.

Gorgeous lupins, Casey. We saw masses of lupins on Prince Edward Island when we visited there several years ago, just one of the features that made the island so very beautiful! Even the horses and cows in the fields seemed to be placed for maximum visual effect! Lol!

I also thought Jim's giraffe looked like it was wearing a hat, but the hat was off center
fixed it.
