False Dayflower

The False Dayflower is one of my favorite flowers. I like it mostly because the petals and stamens together give the flower the appearance of having a face.

Mr. Hummingbird

I posted a photo of a female Ruby-throated Hummingbird last week. This photograph is of her male counterpart. The male has the ruby coloring around his throat.

Red Poppies

Red Poppies are not native to Texas. I normally only photograph Texas Wildflowers but the scene was so nice that I decided it would make a good photograph.

Natural Paintbrush

Spring in Texas is the best time of year. Temperatures are pleasant and the wildflowers are in full bloom. Among the colorful flowers is the Texas Paintbrush.
