I have many different phlox plants in my garden, they flower from July until mid September. This is my favorite of them. #Flowers #phjox

Saw these mushrooms on a short hike yesterday. Don't know what they are but the look cool. If you identify please let me know. 🍄 #fungi #fungifriends

I was out on a short hike around to an interesting local lake and saw several mushrooms including these tiny orange fellas. Don't know what they are but the look cool. If you identify please let me know. 🍄 #fungi #fungifriends

Two porcupines arguing in a tree. They were making a hell of a noise barking at each other. It could have been some sort of mating ritual but I think it was a fight. #photography #nature #porcupine #treeargument

I went to see the end of the Tulip Festival today. Colours were muted but there were crews removing the tulips from the beds so it was ok to take home some bulbs (they get a new batch of bulbs every year)! 👍 🌷 #flowers #tulips

I was out for a walk in the forest yesterday to check out the spring flowers before the tree canopy controls all the sun light. Saw these beautiful fungal growths that look like delicious pancakes on a tree stump. #FungiFriday #FungiFriends

I was out for a spring hike today to see the forest flowers (trilliums and trout lilies). I saw some dark lichen on a tree that looked a bit like an owl's face. #fungifriends #fungifriday

A nice walk along the Fortune Lake parkway yesterday. Many varieties of wild flowers such as these asters which were popular with local worker bees. #flowers #aster #bees

The worker bees are busy today collecting pollen from dahlia and rudbeckia flowers. The bees are remarkably tolerant of idiots with cameras! 👍😀 #flowers #bees #dahlia #rudbeckia

Some of the dahlias I planted beside a floor to ceiling window have flowers that are facing the window (and away from the sun) giving a nice view when I open the blinds. Thank you mother nature! 👍😀 #flowers #dahlia

The Monarda (light purple flowers) and Rudbeckia (bright yellow flowers) are in full bloom. The local bees are quite happy! #flowers #monarda #rudbeckia

Dinner plate dahlia flower. I still find it amazing that a bulb the size of a medium potato produces a plant 5 feet tall with lots of huge flowers! Nature rules!👍😍

Dinner plate dahlias are loving the sunshine near the back window. #flowers #dahlia

The purple phloxes are blooming! Love these flowers as they bloom from July to late September #flowers #phlox

Day lilies are in bloom in my perennial garden! #flowers #daylilies 🌼

Some early blooms in my garden! #flowers #monarda #daylily #coreopsis

I can collect seeds from this columbine if you want.
