Lespedeza hirta - closeup...

I thought I only had two varieties of lespedeza around here - wand lespedeza (native) and Chinese lespedeza (invasive). Now I find I have hairy lespedeza too! Native to the Carolinas and Georgia. More info here - http://namethatplant.net/plantdetail.shtml?plant=808

For my friends in the UK, I'm looking for unusual names for a boy with Scottish or Welsh ties. My rough collie pup will be born in October and I have to have two names for his AKC registration. The first name and what I will call him is Will, but I need a name to follow that one. No cutesy dog names, please. Something like Collin or Sean but NOT those. LOL!
Lovely

It's the lighting and the great exposure and the lovely details!

@sugarmuser Thank you, Sharon! I sure hope you find some relief. I've had occasional migraines and they are so incapacitating.

@granagringa Thank you!

Seems like an appropriate name for this beauty. Great light to catch his/her/its character.

Wow this is pretty, the light is on point - FAV
September 14th, 2021  
Wow, fabulous light!

Nice lighting on the flower.
I can’t help for your dog … my kids always said I’ve stupid ideas ( one of them was to have a male dog and call him Brad-Pitt…or call our chihuahua “Godzilla”…. )

@joysabin Thank you! It was about sundown when I shot this.

@catcarter19 Very kind, Cat. Thank you very much.

@cocobella Thank you, Corinne! LOL! This will most likely be my last dog and he will be my constant companion - more than a pet! I have my reasons for naming him Will, but I need a second name to go with it.

Mackintosh comes to mind for a Scottish pup or MacGregor or simply Scot!

I learn a lot on flower looking at your posts. It's wonderful!

Beautiful

Absolutely fantastic balance of light and shadow.
For your soon-to-be pup, what about Eirian (ey-REE-an)? It’s a gender neutral Welsh name that means “bright”.
September 15th, 2021  
Nice
September 15th, 2021  
@ljmanning Thank you, Laura! Oh, that sounds very nice... Will Eirian... I also like Will Conall (means strong wolf) and Will Angus (meaning one strength). Will means peace so I'm leaning toward peace and strength which is what I need. LOL! But peace and bright is very pleasant to my ears. =)
