Thankful Thursday - Sunflowers

 I love sunflowers. I once planted them all along one side of the garden shed where we used to live. They brought lots of nature to the backyard, especially goldfinches and hummingbirds. 


Someone planted an entire field of them down by the river access. This isn't them. I took this pic at Sam Parr State Park. 


This is them. When we left for vacation, they were tall, I only saw one or two in bloom.


Then we went to Tennessee and Minnesota and by the time we came back, this is what we found. 


Next summer ...

  5. Sunflowers have such a way of drawing life and colour into any place, whether a garden shed or a wide riverside field
