My Flowers 2

Here are a few more images of some of the flowers that I have growing in the front yard.

This one isn't actually a flower but it kind of looks like a flower when i stirred milk in my coffee and took a shot.Some pansies
I have no idea what this one is.

Big purple Annual.

Pictures of My Animals 2

Some more pictures of my cute animals, I got some more images of Mitzie laying on her back and I got images of our Degu (which I didn't have before).

Mitzie lying on her back, she looked right at the camera.

This is the degu and his treat (donuts).

Trek In the Ravine

I took a ride down to the Creek Ravine near my house the other day and picked up some interesting images from there.
This is the stream that runs through it

Spring Flowers

So I decided to be cool and upload a large post of pictures today because I missed yesterday, so here is 10 pictures of wilderness fun! Plus I might have a couple more later on tonight from a Ravine near the place I live..
This is our growing Cherry Tree, it is still only a few years old.
This is what a budding flower from a cherry tree looks like
These are domesticated Iris, we plant a lot of them every year and they can grow quite tall if allowed.
One of my favorite plants, this is called a Bleeding-Heart
Given that name because it actually looks like a bleeding heart.
Calibrachoa? I think I spelled that right..
This is a Petunia.

These are some wild flowers so I don't really know their names..
I found this while biking in the Ravine, they slowly turn purple, there is a more purple one in the background.
Maybe someone could enlighten me on what this is? My grandmother says it looks like a Wild Apple plant.

And, I've saved my favorite for last.
This is a Tiger Lily Flower, I took this image a few days ago, I think it's stunning.
I hope you enjoyed my little walk through my backyard! I'll be posting images of my Tiger Lily as it grows, right now it's only about 4 inches tall, even though it looks like godzilla in that picture ;).
