If you know me you know I can't go over to my in-laws ranch without taking photos of flowers...lol...I got a bit carried away but there were just so many pretty ones I had to share...

Mums

After we got done moving cows. We tried to catch a calf that we missed and as I was walking through the pasture I saw so many different types of wildflowers, ugh! So as soon as we were finished with the cows and escaped calf I grabbed the camera and headed out for some photo therapy...
Aster (wildflower)

Skullcap family possibly?

A closer view...isn't it beautiful?

Not sure what this is...maybe White Milkwort?

Again not sure what this is...possibly praire sandbur?

The wind was blowing and I really had a hard time getting clear crisp photos!
Aster family

I was laying on the ground trying to catch this little red beetle...every time I got close to the bloom he would disappear underneath the petals...my patience finally paid off...

This is what I saw while chasing the calf and I so wanted a photo of it...it doesn't grow over by us but I had seen it in a pasture years ago near New Davy...when I spotted it I knew I had to come back and get a photo...it's a type of Milkweed called Antelope horn...
While I was going through the photos on the computer I laughed...if you look closely you can see a Goldenrod spider...
another "where's Waldo" photo...
I never saw the spider while I was taking photos!!
I didn't have much time for photos but enjoyed the photos I managed to capture...quiet a few new wildflowers that I had not seen before...now time to do some research and find out exactly what they are...

Hi Wendy,
Gosh I would like to see these beautiful flowers around here!!! Spring has not really started over here, it is slowly warming up but we are still around 6°C, and the sun is already gone to another country. We are having the first blooming trees but no flowers yet.
