I really appreciate your knowledge and assistance in identification of these various plants, flowers, and creatures. Your background and experience has certainly been an asset to you and a benefit to others. I am happy that you have enjoyed some of my information. I have definitely appreciated all of your comments and help.
6 months agoI am no expert, for sure, but as background, I got a Zoology degree from Arizona State University in 1969, but ended up in Safety Management for Civil Service. Being a cyclist most of my life from 1956 to the present, I like to follow cycle journals, connecting both interests in nature and cycling.
Thanks for posting all the nature photos. I learn a lot looking things up. Now, if only I could remember a fraction of what I learn!!
Much appreciated Bill.This is an unusual wildflower, at least for me. There are not very many of this hue around here. I'm very glad to have your help identifying these beautiful flowers. I like them but am far from being an expert.
6 months agoThank-you Bill. I see this type of plant and flower around here, quite a bit, at this time of year. In some spots, there are large clusters. The yellow flowers are striking, especially when there are a lot of them together in an area.
6 months agoThank-you Bill! These were very pretty and added a little color to contrast with all of the green.
6 months agoI appreciate this, Bill. I had stopped and noticed this unusual creature moving along below me. It is not something usually seen when I am out and about.
6 months agoThanks Bill. I have a different type of Wild Geranium in my home garden. The leaves are similar.
