Your other photo has just come up now too @NatureLover ... the mauve one. Its really nice, and one of my favourite colours ... along with purple, blue, yellow and orange. 🧡
I'm trying to concentrate on the footy right now ... my Canberra Raiders are playing. But the wind is roaring in the tall trees and its very loud. Cant really shut it out.
@Lee71 ... do you know what the yellow flower is? I dont recognise it at all.

It's called ranunculus, a cousin of the rose.

I thought it looked like a rose, except for the middle inside...
I'm glad you liked the purple flower. 🙂
Do you think you might feel up to trying to eat something today? @Lee71
