Firstly, a few flower shots from mine and my neighbour's garden.
1. Campfire Rose, named after painter Tom Thompson. It's developed to survive our Canadian climate. We'll see!
2.and 3. Peonies
4. Out on the road: speed bump ahead!
5. and 6. Badlands from the side of the road. They're clay deposits layered with shale, I believe.
7. Fun to scamper about
8. What's going on here?
9. Oh dear.
10. A lot of wildlife about at this time of day. I saw a deer on the road (thankfully before we had an altercation with it) and this is a wild turkey.
Lovely flowers and those "Badlands" look very interesting - unusual landscape, haven't seen anything like it before.
