While out driving yesterday we drove past this clump of unusual shaped of Evening Primroses growing in a shallow ditch beside a church at crossroads near Dipper Harbour and Mace's Bay. The first glimpse I saw of them reminded me of windmills on a stick that we used to play with as kids. I asked my husband to turn and go back and when he asked "What are we looking for I replied, "flowers that look like windmills", and when we got back to the location and he saw them he knew what I had meant. I hope you can see the similarity also.To view a wonderful variety of yellow-themed photos from other bloggers around the world, just click on the link below.
Those are very pretty. They do resemble windmills. Helen
ReplyDeleteThey do look like that. And so very pretty. I don't think I've ever seen any quite like them.
ReplyDeleteSuch a nice buttery (and mellow) yellow in those windmills!
ReplyDeleteYep very mellow and yellow, very nice.
ReplyDeleteNeat! I just love when things remind me of yesteryear..fun to remember back then..windmills. cool!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty...they look like a crown of yellow flowers sitting on the plant's head :-)

Your second picture does remind one of a windmill or pinwheel. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI also commented on a few other posts below.
I couldn't help notice you have 63 covered bridges in New Brunswick. Here in Kentucky we have 13 left. I've photographed some of them before with a different camera but I want to start all over so as to capture them with my new one.
I didn't know what primrose looks like. It's great when you find something unexpected. Thanks for sharing that Ann....Michelle
