for a natural early fall colors in Oklahoma I did not have to go far to find this patch of wild shoemake in red foliage, with wild golden rod and wild blue asters!
Rogers County, Oklahoma
Horses are deeply social animals and feel secure in groups because isolation causes anxiety. They have a prey instinct and their response to perceived threats is to flee, making them easily startled by unfamiliar sights, sounds, or smells.
Oklahoma is home to the most marijuana dispensaries per capita of any state in the USA. Known as the "Wild West of Weed," there are more dispensaries (over 2,000) currently operating in the state then there are gas stations. There are about 36 shops for every 100,000 residents.
Medical marijuana cardholders are allowed to purchase up to three ounces of marijuana flower at once from a dispensary. They are allowed to have a total of eight ounces of cannabis in their private residence.
Flower, which is “traditional” marijuana bud, is the most popular product with 49% of transactions compared to only 13% for Edibles, the next highest.

BNSF Railway

The white-lined sphinx moth, Hyles lineata, is a common sphingid moth that occurs throughout most of North America, from southern Canada down to Central America. It has long, narrow, triangular forewings and shorter hindwings, with a wingspan of 2½ to 3½ inches. In poor light they can easily be mistaken for hummingbirds as they hover at tubular flowers, sipping nectar with a long proboscis, and are especially attracted to scented flowers. This one is nectaring on a Red Horsechestnut in my yard in NE Oklahoma.
