It is truly feeling like autumn with the temperatures dropping down into the thirties and the light slanting low and golden. The air like a cool mountain stream: cool, clear and invigorating. Here is the second set of my favorite summer photos.
Enjoy, and keep it frisky folks!
Calendula officinalis
Drosera filiformis, Thread-leafed sundew - My little pretty!
Rose of Sharon flowers (Hibiscus syriacus, Malvaceae) - edible flowers
