A medium, eye-level shot featuring a light brown deer and its fawn, standing close together, alerted against a backdrop of dense, tall green grass and evergreen trees. The adult deer, positioned slightly forward, has large ears and a slender neck, looking directly at the viewer. The fawn stands slightly behind and to the left of the adult. Foreground foliage, slightly out of focus creates a soft, veiled visual effect at the bottom of the image.

Classic, simply cheerful, beauties. Big, bright white, #ShastaDaisies in our front gardens.

A close-up of white daisies with bright yellow centers in a garden setting. Three fully bloomed daisies are visible, along with several closed buds. Green foliage surrounds the flowers, with hints of green, red, and black planters in the background. A portion of a concrete surface is also visible.

#Coreopsis in bloom.
Joyful yellows in our gardens. They spark joy 😊

A close-up captures a vibrant cluster of bright yellow coreopsis flowers in varying stages of bloom. Some are in full bloom, showcasing their textured petals and small, dark brown centers. Others are partially open, while some stalks showcase buds in tightly closed green sheaths. Supporting the blossoms, slender green stalks rise amidst small, green leaves. The backdrop is a dense, leafy green hedge, providing a contrasting background. The flowers sit on a grey concrete garden feature with a green trim.

Native edible aquatic plant. American white water lilies at Prospect Lake in the Highlands. Nymphaea odorata. These are the only native water lilies in this area of the world. Other water lilies you see are invasive introduced species.
Beavers & muskrats like eating their stems.
Their seeds, flowers & rhizomes can all be eaten raw or cooked. Roots can be boiled to create a medicinal liquid to treat sore throats (gargle it) & for diarrhea (drink it). Many Indigenous peoples used the rhizomes to treat coughs/colds & crushed stems can be put on teeth to treat toothaches.

A vertical shot showcases water lilies gracefully floating on a pond. Emerald green lily pads blanket the water's surface, creating a dense backdrop. The focal point is the pristine white water lilies, their delicate petals catching the light. Each lily features a bright yellow center filled with stamens.
