Everything looked so sad yesterday when the show hit the Denver area. Everything looked definitely better just days before and... we can take a look at the flowers before the snow covers them...
The wild roses are definitely go for the second round of blooming and, honestly, I like it!
I've never seen this flower before. And they weren't in bloom just a few days ago. Interesting how some plants are waiting until the Fall time instead of blooming in Spring.
By the way, the name of this flower is Bluemink (a species of Whiteweed), but I like another common name of Mexican Paintbrush more. Which name appeals better for you, huh?
And you can always to find some damselflies if you walk close to the pond.
There are a lot of oaks growing around the park in my area. And there were a lot of baby acorns on the trees in June. Surprisingly now I can barely find any acorns. I'd say two or three per tree (and I am, probably, missing at least half). Where are the others? Weren't developed for some reason or they all were collected by squirrels? This question bothers me a bit... but do I really care?
Hoary Alyssum are not blooming anymore. They still have flowers, but not as many as only a couple weeks ago. But now is the time for seeds, time to spread them around.
Rubber Rabbitbrush is now the favorite flower for the bees. There are dozens of them feeding on the bushes and hundreds of bushes and... means the bees still have work to do ;)
The pictures were taken in September 2020.
