From north Texas, delicate, fragrant blooms of spring I share with you, along with a little touch of blue.

Petrea volubilis, commonly known as queen's wreath or purple wreath, is an evergreen flowering vine native to Tropical Americ.

It is found especially on the banks of rivers and streams, from northern Mexico to Bolivia, Brazil and Paraguay in the Antilles and in Venezuela. Depending on the climate, it can have up to two bloommings in the year and is very attractive for butterflies.

 

It is a very flowery and ornamental vine, often used to cover pergolas, canvases, railings or even leaning on walls.

As a climbing plant, it grows to a height of 12 meters, but as a shrub it grows to 4 meters tall and the flowers emerge from bracts.

 

The flowers form in large clusters, more than 30 cm in length, and may have a purplish-blue color (most common) or even a variety with white flowers. It prefers cultivation in full sun, but tolerates and develops satisfactorily in half shade.

 

In Brazil receive the name of Flor de São Miguel ( Saint Michael flower).

Thank you Otoha for doing this with me😘

The most subtle and intricate nature of a rose lends itself to thoughts of a world of intimate fantasy…

I haven't cropped this picture because I find the butterfly enchantingly beautiful in its habitat.

Ich habe diese Aufnahme nicht beschnitten, weil ich den Schmetterling in seinem Lebensraum bezaubernd schön finde.

Junonia almana, the peacock pansy, is a species of nymphalid butterfly.

It exists in two distinct adult forms, which differ chiefly in the patterns on the underside of the wings; the dry-season form has few markings, while the wet-season form has additional eyespots and lines.

The delicacy of the petals and stamen combined with the water drops makes a delightful little floral image. Found in the Palmengarten in Frankfurt.

I never tire of seeing Chickadees. They are such delicate and tiny creatures but are often bold enough to take sunflower seeds right out of your hand. They're also challenging to photograph as they don't sit still for long. This one was checking out some seeds strewn along a trail in a Provincial Park.

I went for a wander around the neighbourhood with my new camera today. I am blown away by the clarity of the 50D. I know everyone says that it is the person behind the camera, but having good gear certainly helps in my opinion. These are all SOOC only resized in Photoshop.

 

I hope you are all having a nice week. I am very sore and needing some chocolate but I am starting a healthy eating plan ~which means chocolate is off limits !!

Quite amazing to watch him (male sparrowhawk) clean his feathers and pick bits of his kill from between his talons. A great experience (for me)! PS, it is just a larger crop of my previous post.

 

Thanks to all who have visited, commented or faved my photos. It is very much appreciated.

You have to work to keep love alive; you have to protect it and maintain it, just like you would a delicate flower.
