My walk this morning was close to the house - a look out at the natural world and the plants blooming in our flowerbeds.
We have a good crop of Douglas fir cones this year.
Ah, the blue of Chickory!
Is there anything prettier?
Hawthorn berries
Blackberries
One of the earliest signs of autumn - the Ash leaves have begun to turn.
Another sign - new catkins on the Hazelnut.
This lily grew outside of the deer fence - so far the deer have left it alone.
Autumnal sunflower
Rose
My favorite lily
Monster Howden pumpkin
Rudbeckia
Helenium
Rudbeckia Henry Eilers
Rudbeckia triloba
That's it for today - stay cool and hydrated!
Everything looks beautiful. I will keep my fingers crossed that the deer stay away from that lovely lily! We are still cool but the heat is forecast to come by the weekend! UG!
