The great eclipse of 2024. Souderton, PA 4/8/2024

 Today it rained on my sunflower. Two treatments. One in color and one without. Soon there won't be anything left of my sunflower. Just a new bloom in the Spring.

 This sunflower has been a willing subject since it was a little bloom.  Now it is winter and it is a source of food for birds that have remained with us in this season.

 Good-bye dear. See you later.

 Female House Finch shaking off the rain.  How fast she turns her head...

 Duet. And congratulations for a job well done!

Gabe's piano recital.  Not much light. Monopod lent a measure of stability.

 The last performer.

 Sunflower at the end of the season. Filled with treats for our winter visitors.

 Surprising visitor today. Haven't seen a blue heron in our yard before.
