Today's Flowers #113 Seeds and berries

Sunflower head with one remaining petal!

Pyracantha berries - these will be eagerly consumed by blackbirds later on
Ripening holly berries on Ilex 'Golden King'
Blackbirds and thrushes will enjoy these. Sometimes a pair of Mistle thrushes will appropriate the tree and keep all-comers at bay!

Pale now, they'll  ripen
To scarlet winter glory,
Brightening dull days.
