Delicate colours of summer
On 16 September 2015, I called in at the Reader Rock Garden after my volunteer shift. There seemed to be more flowers in bloom than on my previous visit, including a couple of these Cosmos flowers. Also quite a few distant small birds flitting from tree to tree at one point They were impossible to see well enough to get photos or IDs, though, except for a beautiful little Hermit Thrush. I had noticed a Jack Rabbit in the garden and then, when I drove through the adjoining cemetery, it or another one was running in among the gravestones. When it saw my car coming, it froze and waited till I had moved on.
"Cosmos is a genus, with the same common name of Cosmos, consisting of flowering plants in the sunflower family.
It is native to scrub and meadowland in Mexico where most of the species occur, as well as the United States, as far north as the Olympic Pennsula in Washington, Central America, and to South America as far south as Paraguay.
The genus includes several ornamental plants popular in gardens." From Wikipedia.
