I had a wonderful time out searching for the remains of more wildflowers on a chilly winter morning. I took my camera so you can see what I found.

Goldenrod - Golden yellow in the summer

Wild Sunflowers - So cheery on hot July days

At this time of year the birds have already eaten all the seeds.

A single rosehip

Sagebrush - it really is kind of pretty though in the warm light

Yarrow - Grows hardily where other flower perish quickly

Black-eyed Susan - A favorite flower. I even like the distinctive seed head.

Unidentified composite - I'd love to know what this one is called.

Star thistle - A noxious weed to some, but it does have it's beauties,
for those looking for wonder.
Wouldn't it be fun to make a journal of wildflower through the seasons in our individual areas.

You can keep your star thistle! We have pulled ours all up by hand to get it out of our yard.
