FFTD: Late Bloomer

Posted on November 20, 2019 Updated on July 21, 2020

I have no idea what this is nor can I tell if it is a flowering shrub or a small tree. It doesn’t mind cool weather but, sadly, the hard freeze the next day destroyed all the blooms.

Update:
Another blogger identified it as a Camellia. Thank you!

FFTD: Lots of Daisies

Posted on November 9, 2019 Updated on July 21, 2020

I had intended to do a Shutterbug Saturday post but, I’ve spent the entire day battling my laptop. I curse Microsoft.

Instead, here are some late season, happy daisies. ~Vic

POTD: Examiner Encounters 3.0

Posted on September 29, 2019 Updated on October 4, 2023

I posted a couple of pictures from my Examiner days back in May. I found another one. I took several pix while working but, I have them scattered. There may be more. I don’t remember why she had the Service Dog. She certainly wasn’t blind and didn’t have any disabilities. I think she may have been a trainer. What an adorable baby. ~Vic

FFTD: Azaleas

Azaleas are usually Springtime visitors. Some of them, well, they are the late bloomers. This is a small bush on the First Baptist church property. ~Vic

FFTD: Tulips & Narcissus

Posted on September 15, 2019 Updated on October 4, 2023

A companion piece to an earlier post, the white Narcissus is a beautiful contrast. The telephone pole, not so much. I still don’t remember where the pix were taken. ~Vic
