Taken from the Tower of Squash at the 10th Annual Heirloom Exposition in Ventura, California. The Exposition celebrates the history, preservation, and cultivation of heirloom varieties of fruits and vegetables free from genetic modification. The huge number of different types of “heirloom” fruits and vegetables was mind blowing. I had never seen or heard of nearly all of them.
I havested our last squash today. We put a few slices into our veg mix along with some apple and sultanas. Delicious.

Strange single squash from my garden.
How many animals do you see? I see a seal, a goose,and a possible walrus. :-) A fun find for me today.

I'm always amazed at how many different colours, shapes & textures pumpkins, squash & gourds come in! Here's a colourful display! Best viewed large!

I'm not sure which squash this blossom belongs to, we'll see in a month or so.
A close up of a squash in the garden. The skinny, wiry tendrils help support the weight of the plant. The bristly trochees look like hair in the light.

A pumpkin is a cultivated winter squash in the genus Cucurbita. The term is most commonly applied to round, orange-colored squash varieties, but does not possess a scientific definition. It may be used in reference to many different squashes of varied appearance and belonging to multiple species in the Cucurbita genus. grokipedia.com/page/Pumpkin

Bored Sunday morning.
Two bits of black card on the dinning room table.
Three squash from the supermarket...
Tripod, camera shot straight into Lightroom CC via tethered connection.
A football-sized French variety. It was the colour of the flesh that enticed me to take it out on to our front doorstep to photograph. An even better colour when cooked.

Pruinose squash bee
Up to 80% of insects co-evolved with plants. This bee only pollinates flowers in the squash/gourd family. Since we had so much rain this year, they are finally able to emerge and pollinate the flowers.
Sometimes an odd squash will get hidden under the vast quantities of leaves and trailing stems. On occasion at the end of the season, as I clear away the rotting growth I come across a hidden one I'd missed. I found this one yesterday.
Thank you so much for sharing your quality photos which is a great way to see and keep some sort of toDSC06344 Hardy chrysanthemumuch with the world from home. Also for your kind comments and favours which are much valued.
I am not able to take on any more members to follow or to post to groups. I prefer not to receive invites.
I have a thing for vines...I love the simple elegance they use to get the job done!
I was also pretty happy with the bokeh colors here...there were eggplants and squash flowers in the background ; )
A big bloom that makes the honeybee inside look small. The plant was draped over a privacy fence and there were a couple of huge zucchini squash hanging on the greenbelt side of the fence. I'm not sure if the owner is aware. Click on the image for much more detail.
These make a great alternative to burgers. Cut them into thick slices and fry, add provolone cheese, and fresh sliced tomato, put them in a bun.
A French variety. Although sown late it produced 3 squashes like this one.
