I'm always fascinated by the colorful bill and face they have!

This native plant is also called the Wattle. 1000 of 1350 species found in Australia. Commonly known as the wattles or acacias, it's a large genus of shrubs and trees in the subfamily Mimosoideae of the pea family Fabaceae. Initially, it comprised a group of plant species native to Africa and Australia. They are present in all terrestrial habitats, including alpine settings, rainforests, woodlands, grasslands, coastal dunes and deserts. Aboriginal Australians have traditionally harvested the seeds of some species, to be ground into flour and eaten as a paste or baked into a cake. The seeds contain as much as 25% more protein than common cereals, and they store well for long periods due to the hard seed coats. In addition to utilizing the edible seed and gum, the people employed the timber for implements, weapons, fuel and musical instruments. 3606

Looking Handsome for the Ladies

So I might be a little bit obsessed with a certain local flower shop and the lady that runs it has the most amazing eye for beautiful flora. This wreath caught my eye when I was last mooching about. Simple. Pure. Love.

Common fumitory (Fumaria muralis) has an interesting little flower, pretty complex. Although it's a European migrant, it seems quite happy in moist shady spots in Washington state.

Leucanthemum × superbum, the Shasta daisy, is a commonly grown flowering herbaceous perennial plant with the classic daisy appearance of white petals (ray florets) around a yellow disc, similar to the oxeye daisy Leucanthemum vulgare Lam, but larger. It originated as a hybrid produced in 1890 by the American horticulturist Luther Burbank from a number of daisies. First, he crossed Leucanthemum vulgare with Leucanthemum maximum (Ramond) DC.; this double hybrid was itself crossed with Leucanthemum lacustre (Brot.) Samp. The resulting Leucanthemum triple hybrid was crossed with Nipponanthemum nipponicum (Franch. ex Maxim.) Kitam., creating an intergeneric cross of species from three continents. It was named after Mount Shasta, because its petals were the color of the snow. Some members of the genus are considered noxious weeds, but the Shasta daisy remains a favorite garden plant. 11826

This pretty Wood Duck was enjoying a lazy afternoon on the Rideau River. Happy Tuesday my friends, enjoy =)

It's always a special treat for me to find flowering Daphne mezereum, both because it's quite rare and also because it supplies otherwise still colorless forests with such wonderful pink flowers. The whole plant is a thoroughly toxic affair though, as every part of it contains high levels of plant poison. Four of its little red berries are enough to kill a child, 8-10 berries will kill an adult and just touching any part of it can cause rashes. Still a very pretty plant though :-)

Enjoying the afternoon in my garden, on my neighbours fence.

HFF everyone!

He says, "What a pretty distraction

She's just what I need

And I know she'll be mine by the end of the night

If I make her as insecure as me"

Robins are always curious and don't shy away from contact with humans, but they don't like strong noises... quietly and inconspicuously they approach and check out the situation.

Rotkehlchen sind immer neugierig und scheuen den Kontakt zu Menschen eigentlich nicht, allerdings mögen die keine starke Geräusche… still und unauffällig nähern sie sich, und Checken die Lage ab.

Thanks for your Visit Views Faves and Comments, have all a Nice Weekend. 🍂🍁✌
