The Gaillardia (Indian Blanket flower) is a complete surprise. I grew some from seed last year. Got lots of foliage but no flowers. Today I found this one solitary bloom.
Thanks Don. We get them frequently here, I think it’s because we’re near a wooded area.
They love an old tree or to eat from a hanging fat ball.
They fell out of favour with me some time back as they raided a nearby blue tit nest…
They make me smile, they really are like the Woody Woodpecker carton, hammering with their beaks!
