I bet you can't wait for it to open, Mary :-)

The second bird in my picture is the 'sculpture' the Bronzwing is sitting on. At least we call it a bird ;-)

  Barbara, this is another "at the grocery store" (actually a Big Box store - hence, the photo's title) capture. It was taken in March, so it's highly unlikely that any part of it is alive and thriving! :-)
Thanks again for explaining your "Bird and Bird" photo. You are so tactful!

  That is the way it works when we go to stores. I have become so use to having my little cannon with me where ever I go. Gorgeous colors and textures fill the page with there beauty. Love the lighting to that looks like it is outdoors. Love it my friend.

  I thought for a moment you were already seeing blooming sunflowers!! I feel a bit better knowing this is a "store variety"! Wonderful capture, Mary!! My flowers are all blooming earlier than normal this year, but still no blooming sunflowers here! Can't wait!!

  Economy size? You mean you only need one to fill the whole garden, Mary? HA! And what a beauty it is. I would love to have them in my little garden - well, actually one would really be enough :)

  What a beauty, Mare! I think this is such an exciting time in a flowers life. When it is still formulating and almost ready to open and mature and say hello to the world. They are at that "Get ready for me" moment! Really lovely! :))) -Pommy

  Belated thanks to everyone who commented on this image last month. I went into the hospital with pneumonia a few days after this post, and hope you all understand that I am playing "catch-up" as time and health permit.
Have a great Thursday!
