Red on a Sunflower

My cousin, Enita, sent me this photo. Isn't it a sight for sore eyes? I'm so growing lots of sunflowers this summer.

Hey! I'm trying to eat.

Could you point that thing somewhere else?

Kim said...: Wonderful photo. I grow sunflowers every year. They the perfect flower to winter over every year because the finches love to eat their seeds in the late fall.; February 27, 2009 at 5:57 AM
