We didn't plant any sunflowers this year but some came up anyway, courtesy of the birds! In fact, quite a number of flowers are 'planted' by our feathered friends - a little thank you, maybe? (Too fanciful, I know!)
Thank you to the TF team who host this weekly meme. Click here to see more beautiful blooms.
Another reason to be grateful for birds.
ReplyDeleteOh wonderful! i have some - must plant them and see what happens!
ReplyDeleteI've planted sunflowers and had none come up, and I thought it was the fault of the birds. Maybe they were just bad seeds.

ReplyDeleteMy entry is a Dahlia.
Sunflowers are my favorite flower. They aren't exactly beautiful, just amazing.
ReplyDeleteIt is really nice to get flowers instead of weeds from seeds that you didn't plant! I like sunflowers.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful end-of-summer shots!
ReplyDeleteThat's fun when that happens ... as long as they don't shade out the ones you did plant. One year growing up I remember the tomatoes taking over the garden.
ReplyDeleteFun!! L
ReplyDeleteI've given up trying to grow sunflowers, the squirrels in my yard seem to think I plant the flowers as treats for them. Yours are beautiful, I really like the second photo.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sunny gold in these sunflowers!
ReplyDeleteSunflowers are so happy even at the end of the season.
ReplyDeleteI find myself taking more and more photos of sunflowers. They make me smile.
ReplyDeleteI used to raise sunflowers, very easy, just like lots of water and sun. Then you get this amazing pile of seeds for the birdies. Lovely photos.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sunflowers! It's so vibrant. I really love it. Thanks for sharing.
