Red Spikestrip - _TNY_7148

The purple coneflower (Echinacea purpurea) is also known as the hedgehog coneflower. And if you zoom in on it close enough to net see the purple petals and just the bright red center, it is not difficult to see where the "hedgehog" part comes from.

 

The very hairy-eyed visitor here is a western honey bee (Apis mellifera)
