Texas Bluebonnets ~ Springtime in Texas means fields of beautiful bluebonnets.
No wonder they talk about this flower as being such a favorite in Texas. I have seen many species of lupine in many places, but these are the brightest blue ever!
I always have the feeling, when I see a milkweed pod split open, that the seeds are bursting with the desire for freedom. A breeze comes along, and off they fly--free at last! This shot is of such a seed pod with many of its seeds still enclosed, and accompanied by one small milkweed bug. 8/8/21 www.sparhawkphotography.com
