Just More Sunflowers

Got a lot of these.




I don't think I reduced file sizes on these. Oh well.




I've got a fast connection. I might stop going to the trouble of reducing file sizes anymore.




Many more to go. The gardens give me a lot of satisfaction. Therapy. Escape. I need it all.

More Sunflowers, Eh?

Yes, I've got new stuff but this hot weather makes me lazy.




Kinda hard to find things to say about them. They are what they are.




They really don't look so good anymore. They've been hit by the heat and they are close to the end of their growing season. Now I've got finches, red wing blackbirds, bluebirds, cardinals, all feasting on the matured seeds. And I still fill the feeders with black oil sunflower seeds from 40 lb sacks I buy from Tractor Supply.




I took these pics over a month ago. And I'm still not done.

SUNFLOWERS!

Heh, heh, I get a bit extreme sometimes but there's nothing to be extreme about when you are viewing sunflowers.




Stuff like this should have a calming influence. 




So let's be calm.

So, More Sunflowers

I did get some real Lubbock pics last weekend, but they won't go up very soon.




I am no longer taking photos of the sunflowers because I think I've done as much as I can with that subject matter. When these are done it really will be time to move on.




They are starting to be somewhat past their prime anyway. The bloody heat hasn't helped.



In fact, these pics are several weeks old.





This neighborhood cat likes to visit, so I leave out food and water. It seems to enjoy the garden. Not very friendly. I have a feeling it's an abandoned pet. People who abandon pets should be beaten with sticks.
