This is NOT a Sunny Sunday in Toronto Today.

Here is a little sunshine for this not so sunny Sunday
This graceful flower was growing under the bird feeder last summer.

Please turn around so I can get a better look at you?
Very Delicate profile,

but could you turn all the way around?
oh you are a lovely SUNFLOWER

We let the grass grow under the bird feeders late last summer
because we were being visited by hawks.
The hawks were attacking the ground birds which were usually
those innocent slow moving Mourning doves.
We thought if we let the grass grow, the birds could hide better.
(It did seem to help too.)
We started seeing yellow daisy-like flowers sprouting suddenly.
It occurred to me that maybe they were small sunflowers growing from the seeds
dropped onto the ground from the feeders.
