It is not just the Deer and Rabbits feeding on my wildflower patch. This American Goldfinch and partner (or junior) like the Cornflower (Bachelor Button) Blossoms.

Backyard Springtime Nature in New Jersey.

My phone died last week, and won’t have internet access at home for a month. So I will upload images when I find WiFi hotspots that don’t block me for transferring too much data. This is a set of poppies from my wildflower patch before the deer and rabbits got hungry. I also have several time-lapsed videos of the poppies opening which I will post later. Individual images in the slide show can be viewed here.
