Thank you, Diana. Smiling Other than the top flower being slightly out of focus, I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. It is a bit of a mystery to me why some photos bring on the clicks and others don't, but I aim to please and I enjoy connecting with other people here.

I have been watching and waiting for these flowers, which take a while to open. This is actually a different plant from the Cotyledon flower picture I took last year, though you wouldn't necessarily know it from the flowers alone.



The leaves are a different shape (like 1/5 the width). Each of the variants of this species seems to flower at a different time of year (consistently), which is another difference. A plus, in my opinion. Smiling For me and the hummingbirds.
