There is so much to see on a walk in June,
here are a few of my pictures and notes...
robin's nest
::robins rarely use the same nest for two consecutive broods::
wild roses along the hedgerow {unknown}
::I gathered their beautiful red rose hips last winter for decorating::
birdsfoot trefoil {Lotus corniculatus L.}
::A remnant from our hayfield::
common daisy {Chrysanthemum leucanthemum}
::Also called the Ox-eye or Field Daisy::
black-eyed susan {Rudbeckia serotina}
::Named after Linnaeus' old professor, Olaf Rudbeck::
purple milkweed {Asclepia purpurascens}
::Much favored by butterflies, hence the name Butterfly-weed::
It's always sad to see June go.
So lovely. There is such beauty in the humble flowers around us.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos and yes, June does pass too quickly.
