Marshland Darter in our garden
It's a weed, isn't it? 2010-007-18: I have no idea what it is or who planted it. It is growing outside our fence, on the gravel parking spot, next to the telephone pole at the corner of our garden. But once a year it has beautiful flowers. Thanks, Kara: Sure does look like Hibiscus Syriacus (Rose of Sharon). Many thanks for the tip. The comments on yesterday's shot were amazing. Many thanks to all!. Have a blessed Sunday.
2010-07-10 Evening arrives After the heat of the day yesterday, I was sitting outside in the evening, reading a news magazine. I looked up and it was if the top of the tree was on fire. The setting sun on our neighbor's tree was special - so I grabbed the camera. In the time it took to get the camera, the light had moved up another meter or so. So here is a real 'picture of the day'.
