MACRO MONDAY

The sunny day we had here yesterday was perfect for drying out the milkweed pods.  Today they are splitting open and the seeds are taking flight in the breeze.

This lone seed has gotten tangled in the seedheads of some Goldenrod.

Yes....these are growing in my garden...I leave them because every good butterfly garden should have some Milkweed and I really do like their flowers.

(The Goldenrod however, is in the field next door where it will be much loved by the flocks of Goldfinches that will be here soon.)

Wild Grapes

These grapes are growing wild on our rail fence.
