Dandelion and Friend. by ladymagpie

Dandelion and Friend.

I expect we all complain about dandelions in our lawns and gardens, in fact I spend my life getting rid of them in my front garden

But saying that, they can look as pretty as any flower when you look closely at them. This one was in my neighbours lawn, just minutes before my brother came along with his mower. He does gardening around the area in his retirement.

Well this little fly landed just as I was preparing to take the shot, lets hope he got off before the mover arrived,

Best viewed with the magnify button above the pic.
Have you ever tried dandelion wine? Delicious!

You are right, Heather. They are beautiful and maybe we should embrace them instead of trying to get rid of them. They are very hardy! Nice photo!

I actually think they are quite beautiful! Most "weed" are if you look closely:-)
