Handsome in Pink on Flower Friday

Happy Flower Friday!!



Today I, Arty, am hitting the trails at the Arcata Marsh to show you some of the pink flowers that are blooming!



Most of the pink comes from the wild sweet peas.

They are popping up all over the place!



They are in all shades of pink too!!



We also have a couple of other pink flowers too!!

 

Here is the beautiful Spear Thistle. Mama thinks their pink tops make it look like a little muppet character!



Here is a spear thistle covered with pollen
(like a little muppet character with highlights)




Our last blooms today is the Fireweed, this plant was taller than Mama!



Thanks for joining me this week!!!

  14. Beautiful pinks, Arty - they make a great backdrop for your black and white furs!!! We see thistle along the trail on our walks, but they never have pretty pink fluffy tops like yours do.
