Here are some photos of the Rudbeckia flowers blooming around the farm right now...
Yellow centered...
Smooshed into one.
Brown centered...
Just starting to look like a flower...
Amazing transformation...
Barely room for four...
Flowers in the sunshine... and do I see a cabbage moth?!
Behind some tired lavender...
Sitting pretty by the zucchini...
The Over-Achiever.

The perfect bloom.
We know why you like them . . . they look like miniature sunflowers! I'm happy to know what they're called. Your photos are so lovely!

Anna, beautiful as usual.
The last one looks like a belly button.
Do you have any pictures of the big oak trees?
Hugs,

I have been following your blog for quite some time now and just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy it. I started because of the paper crafting work you do, I really like your style. But I love keeping updated with all of your farm critters, even though I'm a city girl.
Your photography is outstanding, can I ask what kind of camera you have?
I look forward each day to seeing what is happing in your world!

GORGEOUS!!! We've had so much rain in the past few days my flowers are looking water logged. Hope to have a dry spell so they can be restored to their full beauty. I'll admire your flowers in the meantime.

One of my favorite flowers!!! LOVE your photos! Wishing my rudbeckia would hurry up and bloom so I can play around with the camera!

BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS! Those are so pretty, especially close up! I love to look at the intricate "insides" of flowers...my favorite to "study" is my poppies. There are so many elements to take in! Just amazing!
I like the photo of the "conjoined" blooms...very interesting!
Thanks for the great pix...and have a wonderful weekend. Stay cool! :D
