you can kind of picture where the term carpet of leaves originates. looking down at reddish brown pinnate leaves covering the ground from eye-height. these leaves are from a tree my grandma gave me when it was shorter than she was, and she barely reached 5'2" after a good sleep. it's almost as tall as my one-story house, now, and she's gone to memories

A rufous hummingbird (immature) for the #WingsOpenNotFlying theme of #BirdOfTheDay

#birds #nature #photography #ECK #stunday
Immature rufous hummingbird has landed on a twig with its wings behind it. It is perched on a spider flower plant with red flowers and bright green pinnate leaves. Based on vocalizations, and images of the tail feathers it is not an Allen’s which are very rare in our inland area.

Happy weekend, lovely Blue sky people!

Don’t forget to take a moment to stop and smell the roses or be one with the cosmos.
A close up photo of a Cosmos flower. Cosmos are herbaceous perennial plants or annual plants growing 0.3–2 metres (1–6+1⁄2 ft) tall. The leaves are simple, pinnate, or bipinnate, and arranged in opposite pairs. The flowers are produced in a capitulum with a ring of broad ray florets and a center of disc florets; flower color varies noticeably between the different species. The genus includes several ornamental plants popular in gardens. Numerous hybrids and cultivars have been selected and named. — Wikipedia

BBC University challenge picture round on plant illustrations taken from original ‘Scouting for Boys’ book. One word answer required. They got the Oak on second guess but none of others. I am always in awe of these students knowledge -but is this an example of ‘Plant Awareness Disparity’?
Simple line drawing of Oak tree and a leaf with lobed edge Line drawing of a tall narrow tree and leaf. Correct answer was given as Aspen. Looks like a Lombardy Poplar to me Ash leaf with opposite pinnate compound leaves Line drawing of Elm tree and leaf with serrate edge and asymmetrical base

Macro of a bee perched head-on looking directly forward. Nestled atop a layered arrangement of small, even-pinnate green leaflets, the insect showcases its dense, pale hairs covering its dark face and a prominent bright yellow patch on its lower clypeus. Its dark, segmented antennae sweep upward and outward to its stage-left and stage-right, while its large compound eyes are in sharp focus. The individual green leaflets feature a distinct, thin dark-red margin. The background elements melt into a smooth, dark bokeh blur.

Cirsium discolor

#nativeplants #ecoregion71
seen from the side, a large composite flower with an urn-shaped receptacle covered in small, green, scale-like phyllaries each with a light green stripe running vertically down the middle and a long golden yellow spike rising diagonally outwards from the tip. at the top of the flowerhead there are no ray florets, but hemispherical mass of numerous disk florets with long, very thin tubular, five-lobed corollas colored light pink. the disks' styles are much taller than the corollas, and for a part of their length are enrobed within a tube of fused anthers. some lil insects are crawling between the disks. spiny green leaf bracts surround the base of the flowerhead. same flowerhead, seen from a much higher angle- the urn-shaped, spine-covered base is obscured. this flowerhead has only disk florets, no rays, but the disks are numerous, many dozens, facing all directions outwards. their corollas are long, thin tubes that terminate in five thin, spreading lobes. each floret has five stamens with long, slender filaments that extend slightly beyond the mouth of the corolla. above that point, the stamens' anthers fuse into a tube that surrounds the style; at the very tips, the anthers are purple. the styles are extremely long and generally curve skyward at least a bit. there is a bee or fly flying around on the left, and a closer bee on the right climbing among the forest of styles. it has black legs and eyes, a light yellow & fuzzy body, and long brown antennae. a bad photo which shows the stem of a field thistle from near its base up high enough to see five flowerheads, none of which are blooming. the green stem bears alternate leaves, green with deep pinnate lobes which are sharp & spiky. from the main stem grow several ascending branches, all lined with spiky leaves, all of which terminate in a flowerhead which is not blooming 😮‍💨. they are urn-shaped and covered in spines. the thistle comes up near to head height.
