We were fortunate to get a little bit of rain last week. It was desperately needed and much enjoyed! It rained for almost an entire day and of course days like that make me want to do nothing but curl up with a book all day. Unfortunately, there are errands to run and it wasn’t to be a lazy day after all.
The rain brought a little beauty into our lives in the form of wildflowers in my yard. A few days after the rain storm, I noticed many of these flowers popping up across the city in the medians on the road and in yards. Texas is known for its wildflowers, and I am happy to have them in the summer! I know they won’t last long (lawn mowers don’t discriminate), but I love having their simple beauty in my yard for a little while.
This one has a teeny tiny spider web on it.
They are mostly white, but I found a few yellow ones too.
I’m looking forward to enjoying the wildflowers of spring, and (as it turns out) throughout the year!
The Serenity Project is a group photography project which aims to bring a sense of peace and calm in imagery. Please visit Jessica Nelson, central Maryland Wildlife Photographer to see what serenity she has found this month. I have know for sure it’s something beautiful!
Amazing what a little rain brings forth. Lovely images Eileen. So nice to see this native wildflower. Love how you captured it stretching up towards the light.

Oh, these are so cool. I love wild flowers. I am glad that you were able to capture them. I can’t wait for you to photography the blue bonnet (I think that’s what they are called).
