A Picture a Day -- Week 35

[nekosensei]

Monday, August 24th:



I saw these flowers during a walk. Anybody know what kind of plants they are? My parents used to have them growing in their backyard. I remember that I hated weeding anywhere near them because they used to attract bees like mad, and I'm deathly afraid of bees.


Tuesday, August 25th:



I have no idea what I was going for in this picture. I intended to find something else to take a picture of inside the house, but I forgot. :(


Wednesday, August 26th:



I think this is a fledgling mourning dove. I had gone out to the garden that afternoon to pick peppers and tomatoes, and this guy was staring down at me from the wire. I'm surprised that he didn't fly away.


Thursday, August 27th:



Whee! Black-eyed Susans!


Friday, August 28th:



emygination's dog, Lucy.


Saturday, August 29th:



Daisies!


Sunday, August 30th:



I thought the play of light and shadow on these plants was kind of neat. I have no idea what kind of flowers they are though. Anybody know?

I don't know what those flowers are, I have a book around here somewhere that I could look them up in. Currently it's packed away downstairs because we're re-doing our ceiling down there. I am familiar with them. Remind me in a week and I'll look them up for you. I REALLY like your picture of the black-eyed susans! I LOVE them!

I think they're a type of begonia.

sedum

Probably this (http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/51498/) or some other similar varieties of sedum. Bees love the flowers... seems like a great place for them to just rest themselves while collecting food at the same time.
