A mix of citrus colours

A mix of citrus colours
Had to dig into my archives for two of my photos this morning, in order to avoid posting an owl or a barn, ha. I still have a lot of photos of both, but I do try and spread them out.

This photo was taken on 21 August 2012, in the garden at the Calgary Zoo. I can never remember the name of these flowers, but I always enjoy seeing their bright colours.

Thanks for the ID, Suzie! Helenium / Sneezeweed.

Sneezeweed is so named because it was once used in snuff, not because it is an allergen.

Today, there are only 8 new photos from My Contacts and it is already getting on for 1:00 pm. Hmm, I wonder if people just aren't posting or if there is a problem somewhere with Flickr.
