Another day, another flower! And butterlies! This painted lady was not scared at all, and there are a few left with a bunch of skippers bouncing around on the zinnias. #flower #photography #bloomscrolling #butterfly #zinnias

This morning saw this Monarch resting on our zinnias. Looks like he's had a rough trip so far, good luck on the rest of your journey. I've been feeling like that lately, can you relate? #flower #photography #butterfly #monarch

Another day, another flower! This one surprised me, only one in a sea of purple and white morning glories. A charming brown morning glory snuck in from somewhere, maybe from the assorted mix we planted earlier? Pretty cool. #flower #photography #bloomscrolling #morningglories

Another day, another flower! Now I know why the morning glories are considered invasive, they are all over the place in my backyard. And I get a surprise mix once in awhile. Is this considered a hybrid? Or normal? #flower #photography #bloomscrolling #morningglories

Another day, another flower! Zinnia with a monarch starting to head out. Less and less showing up, maybe they know storms are heading this way. #flower #photography #bloomscrolling #butterfly #monarch

Another day, another flower! This zinnia color is amazing, like a sunburst. First year with zinnias, need to remember to trim them down so they don't get so tall lol😆 #flower #photography #bloomscrolling #zinnias

Another day, another butterfly! This Pipevine Swallowtail was not afraid at all, almost landed on me a few times. Gorgeous blue with the pink zinnia in the background. #flower #photography #bloomscrolling #butterfly #pipevineswallotail

Another day, another butterfly! A silver spotted skipper on a bright pink zinnia (seems like all the zinnias left are bright pink). #flower #photography #bloomscrolling #butterfly #zinnias

Another day, another butterly! Black Swallowtail! Been able to catch lots of butterflies lately on our zinnias. If I knew this, I would've planted them years ago! First year with zinnias - and so easy to grow. #flower #photography #bloomscrolling #butterfly #blackswallowtail

Another day, another flower - and lately another butterfly! This Painted Lady landed on our zinnias. Took awhile to open up the wings. #flower #photography #bloomscrolling #paintedlady #butterfly

Another day, another flower. Well, the Monarch dominates the pic - they are so fast and hard to get a good pic. This one was on our Honeyvine Milkweed - there's the flower! #flower #photography #bloomscrolling #monarch #milkweed

Another day, another flower! Sunflowers grew tall this year, and this one with a couple of green sweat bees on it. Love the yellow contrasting with the gorgeous blue sky. #flower #photography #bloomscrolling #greensweatbee

Another day, another flower! First time seeing a Tiger Swallowtail on our zinnias! Saw a Monarch also but crap was he fast, too fast to get a pic. #flower #photography #bloomscrolling #tigerswallowtail

Another day, another flower! Missed a day but this morning glory looks like it's glowing from within. #flower #photography #floral #morningglories

Big Mike @big-mikes.bsky.social · 30/07/2026

Flower pic of the day - this one not a zinnia! Planted morning glories a few years back, no wonder they are considered an invasive species - they have taken over the backyard! 😆 #flower #photography #floral #morningglories

Another zinnia from last month. Such great colors. #flower #photography #floral #zinnias

Big Mike @big-mikes.bsky.social · 27/07/2026

Another zinnia, this one in a non-bright white (at least compared to the other colors). #flower #photography #floral #zinnia

Big Mike @big-mikes.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

Planted zinnias for the first time this year. Gorgeous colors, and attracts all kinds of insects - and humming birds! Too many pics, so going to try and post one per day. This crazy world needs some color. #flower #photography #floral #zinnias

Another bumblebee on the morning glories. Look at the pollen this one has collected. #flower #photography #floral #morningglories #bumblebee

More morning glories - with a bonus bumblebee! The striped morning glories randomly pop up. #flower #photography #floral #morningglories

My morning glories when they were in full bloom awhile back - when the morning sun hits them they seem to glow from within. #flower #photography #floral #morningglories

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

Another program bites the dust - just got this email this morning that "the U.S. Fire Administration (USFA) can no longer support the Emergency Management and Response Information Sharing & Analysis Center (EMR-ISAC) at this time". Been a subscriber since 2008. We are living in crazy times.
