While I was walking along, this bird flew in and settled nearby, across a water ditch (so it was feeling pretty safe). It sat there and seemed to watch me for a few minutes, while I was taking photos and flew away when it was ready. Very nice experience.
Caught this little buzzer moments before he flew away. Taken at the English Gardens in Assiniboine Park.
A much cooler weekend for us here but the heat is turning up again by tomorrow. Happy Sunday!! :)
These flowers are very common now, they are wild ones. If you click on it you will see details. Have a great day wherever you are and thank you so much for the visit. :)

But is there such a rose?
To answer the questions, "Is there a Yellow Rose of Texas?" and if so "What is it?", the answer is there was a "Yellow Rose." But it was not a "what" it was a "who" - Emily West Morgan.
It follows, then, that we ask "Is there a rose named in honor of Emily and her heroic act?" Although a possibility, probably not
