We've had no hand in bringing forth the many colours that adorn the fields, and wildflowers have graced our table on more than one occasion. A number of weeks ago, we had a more distinctly yellow 'season' of wildflowers. We're now seeing a changeover to blue, primarily due to Viper's Bugloss, or Blueweed, although the black-eyed Susans are also quite abundant and keeping some yellow in the mix. We're certainly enjoying the show.

@darlin - thank you Darlene; yes, it is a blessing to have these growing wild all around - and different ones keep flowering at different times so there's always a variety of colour.
Hope your week is going well!
@marty - they're so nice to have - sure beats a 'field' of asphalt! Bisous et merci marty!
@Joke van de Klift - dank u wel Joke; ik vind het fijn dat je in nederlands schrijft. Ik ben in IJsselmuiden (tegenover Kampen) geboren, en emigreerde toen ik zes was, maar 'k heb nederlands zelf een beetje geleerd. Bedankt voor je bezoek.
Nature does things so well, doesn't it? It takes a seeing eye like yours to appreciate it though.
I've been sitting here looking at photos and thinking I need to go get some shots of some wild flowers that are just up the street when I came across this post and that cemented it. As soon as I click "Post Comment" I'm grabbing my camera and going. These are gorgeous.
The only thing I can say is you're blessed to be living in your little heaven on earth.
I adore flowers and your flower photos are awesome!
@S. Etole - yes, the creation is wonderful, as long as we don't set out to exploit, rather than enjoy, it. Thank you Susan - I really enjoy going out for a good 'look'.
@Scott - ha ha, I know the feeling Scott - sometimes it just takes a little nudge to go and do it. Glad I could contribute to that, and look forward to seeing your shots!
Oh how gorgeous. I love wildflowers. You've got some great colours in here. The blue and yellow look really spectacular against the green!
Wild flowers are some of the best.These are beautiful.

The first pic is very nice - The green background gives a perfect match to the yellow flowers in the foreground - It is very relaxing to look at - Very Good job :-)

@Krista - thanks Krista! I'll bet you have some real beauties there too, especially in those mountain meadows.
@Ruth's Photo Blog - yes indeed! I think all flowers are great candidates for closeups, although they also perform well in a group. Thanks Ruth.
@CarreraCaballo - thank you Joseph. This clump is growing right beside my garden shed and the wind has blown them to this angle.
wildflowers....my favorite.
love the combination of orange and blue.
spectacular!
Yours is truly a garden of wonders Rick! Beautiful blooms of all varieties love to spread their roots in your soil...I think probably because of how much they are appreciated there!!! Weeds they may be... but even the weeds of this earth hold some beauty!!! Lovely photos!
@M. Hassan - yes, and we are thankful for it. Thanks M!
@chasity - mine too :) Thanks Chasity!
@Katherine - I'm glad they're not too fussy about the soil 'cause it's shallow and full of rocks, but they seem to love it! Maybe they like it because there's little competition. But yes, I do appreciate them.
Thanks for stopping by Katherine - hope all is going well as you move into your weekend.
Love your pics - a credit to the Creator!
@ju-north - thank you for stopping by, and I agree with your comment!
