Are you ready for some sunshine?
Do you love sunflowers?
I never thought about them to much until this beauty popped up in our back yard.
What a sweet (and unplanned) surprise.

My sweet Hubs feeds the birds every day. I think that they usually clean things up pretty well.
But somebody missed this one.

It started sprouting and neither of us new what it was. My Hubs said let's just
let it grow and see what we get. I thought it was a weed.
Silly me!

Yes, I do love sunflowers! What a beauty you have. And so nice to see one blooming in February somewhere! Lots of snow here. No blooms. Have a great weekend. Pamela

I've always wanted to grow them to. Please tell when you first saw the sprout? Maybe it's not too late for me to plant some seeds. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI do love growing sunflowers...and the birds love them too. (and the squirrels)...

I LOVE sunflowers!!! I should get some to grow back by the fence where we have the bird feeder... more birdie food.
ReplyDeleteHi Liz
ReplyDeleteOur family had that exact Brownie camera and an old reel to reel projector with camera as well as I was growing up. They originated with my grandparents in Maine. I have a few photos that were taken with it - mostly of my grandparents. But I remember watching those silly movies of us kids!
I cannot wait for spring to arrive now. Sunflowers are one of my favourite flowers, always smiling.
ReplyDeleteI do love sunflowers! So happy and cheerful!
ReplyDeleteI love sunflowers because I love how their little faces follow the sun!
