Sunflowers!

This is the time of year that fields of sunflowers burst into bloom here, if you're lucky enough to spot one in your travels.  We've been out ands about a bit, so we've come across no fewer than three fields of them, though we haven't got out to take a look because my wheelchair is so heavy it would simply get stuck.

The first spot was a very small patch of sunflowers, at the Bethesda corner just west of town.  The little old church and one-room schoolhouse still stand, though now converted into residential use.

These were certainly looking sunny!

Another day we were in Thornbury and stopped for the pick-your-own raspberry farm.  Across the front of the raspberry field was a thin band of sunflowers.

We didn't expect to find these, so it was a nice surprise.

The third spot was over past the small village of Hepworth, the turning point for those headed north to Tobermory and those headed west to Sauble Beach.

This was a large field, advertised on Facebook and charging for admission, but it was one with a long trail on sand and we were worried I'd get stuck fast!  The view from the road was good too though..

And this is the sunflower field here at home, only one plant that was seeded by the squirrels and has since been entirely eaten by the squirrels!
