you are my sunshine, my only sunshine

Every year I plant a bunch of sunflower seeds in my shore garden. If I'm lucky a few will actually grow.

This year I actually got 3 of them popping up.

The one was a pretty good size and had just reached the top of the privacy fence. The flower head had started to form, but had a ways to go before opening up.

Yesterday I noticed to my dismay that something had gnawed it off. Probably a squirrel.

Today one of the small plants finally bloomed.

I figured I'd take a picture of it before it too disappeared!
