Thursday Thirteen - 75 - 13 Nova Scotia Wildflower Shots

1 - A butterfly sits on a thistle-like Knapweed out at my sister's boyfriend's cottage in Musquodoboit.


2 - Pearly Ever lasting and Butter-and-Eggs in my side garden.



3 - Daisy Fleabane in Mom's flowerbed around the base of a maple tree.




4 - Another Knapweed from the woodland garden in our yard.




5 - Purple Beach Peas out at White Point Beach where we had our writers' retreat.




6 - Meadow Rue and mixed wildflowers in the marshy shore by the cottage where we had our writers' retreat.



7 - These seem like a type of wild Mallow which were out at Eastern Passage in the marshy shoreline.



8 - Spotted Touch-me-Not, also growing along the shore at Eastern Passage. These wildflowers also grow in the dappled shade of the woods near my home.



9 - Gorgeous yellow Tansy out at Eastern Passage.





10 - Rosehips along Lower Water Street near Pier 21 in Halifax.





11 - A beautiful male pheasant that got lost in our yard last fall, among the Lungwort. We'd never had a pheasant drop by before, and haven't since. He eventually found his way back to the woods.


12 - These yellow flowers grow all over the beaches here in Nova Scotia, but I can't seem to find out what they're called. But I love how they tumble over the coastline.



13 - Bunch berry along the coast at White Point Beach.
