Life has become hectic as we prepare for the winter. Night is coming earlier and earlier and even during the day the clouds, whipped by the winds will darken the sky before releasing their chilly rains. The summer really has finished, but despite all of that, if you look into their secret hiding places behind bushes and in sheltered areas, you will find these bright splashes of light to cheer the gloomiest day. I hope you enjoy these sunny little wild flowers and that they brighten your day.

    1. This was taken a few weeks ago, when the leaves were on all of the bushes around it, now they are exposed, but still there, if a little less bright. Thanks Sandi, you too. I hope things are going well for you.

  1. I love the picture and the name, I didn’t know the were called that but it distinguishes them well from other daises.
