Beautiful Little Purple Wildflower

Post by oldcoot »

:bd: :bd: :bd: When Joy took OC out in the yard the other day, OC walked right over this pretty. Joy said come back and made a picture of it for me. OC did and when he saw it, he was sure glad she saw it..Strong Lens made this shot possible. These flowers were barely grass high..

Do Enjoy...............OC

Spotted this Dandelion which had just bloomed. sure glad she was along, for OC would sure have sure missed it
He was looking forward and she was looking down to see what hole in the ground OC was heading for. (She spoils OC rotten. ) And he loves it and tells her so every day all day......Enjoy OC
