Thanks Judy. What I love so much about these poppies is that there petals are paper thin. They're just gorgeous in person.

These are lovely macros. But to tell the truth, what really captures my attention is your header photo. It reminds me of deco designs often found in fabric of the period.

that's so pretty. Not what I was expecting it to look like at all though. I guess when I read poppy I immediately thought of those red ones

Camera Critters - Feeding My Squirrel Buddy

-
Image
Though we are not suppose to feed the squirrels at the gardens, it is always something I enjoy. After all, they do need "good eats" every once in a while. This particular day I brought honey roasted nuts. There were not as many squirrels around as usual, maybe because of the hot weather. So, when I found this little guy in one of the demonstration gardens I decided to let him have the entire bag. He was a bit afraid of me at first but when I piled the nuts in front of him we became instant friends. He even let me take a short video clip of him which you can see below. He was a cutie.
