I was a bit inspired by @luftfluss
recent thread to go and try the buttercups again. Til now, they've usually blown out badly, but I think I got a couple presentable ones this time.
I noticed the fleabane has started blooming, too. It makes a nice subject, such delicate petals.
Of course, what walk would be complete without at least a few bugs?
I don't know what it is, but it looks hungry.
I remember playing with harvesters like this one as a child. They sure have odd faces.
Oh, and unrelated, but not really warranting a thread to itself... This little lady has been waking us up every morning, middle of night, and spends much of the afternoons singing for a mate, too. It's a grey tree frog, in the downspout above one of the rain barrels, and it's been there for weeks. Noisy.
