  to photo blogs that you like or similar amateur close-up photos are also a possibility.

Aunt Lena was one of my Grandmother's twelve sisters. She lived at the north end of
  Neville Island in the Ohio River and out lived all three of her husbands!  This very
bellflower was passed along to my Dear Aunt Ruth (Lena's niece) who later gave
 some divides to my flower loving wife Jo Anne... many, many years ago.

Another twilight flash (as above) but six weeks later, in mid-June.  I love these
 one-day spectacles as more buds are seen to follow. They date the longer solstice
 
days of summer here in SW Pa.  My Grandma Sophie called this more common
and taller reaching Tiger variety, "Outhouse" lilies!

Looking out across Lake Erie Bay (in late July'04) this carefree bumble bee is working hard on a
  profuse cluster of milkweed, flowering in our favorite Pennsylvania State Park ... Presque Isle.
Weeds do not usually if ever need a pollinator's help. Nectar-needy bees know this misnaming.
