Photos from the past couple days

[urbpan]

Alexis and I were surprised by a newly blooming batch of wild sunflowers in the Riverway.


I noticed this house on Market street in Brighton on my way to a workshop and felt compelled to photograph it.


New greenhouses being built at Waltham Community Farms.


Elsewhere in Waltham, just off of busy Main street, some pavement ants* get ready for a major change.

*my previous identification of this ant is under some question. any expert opinion is welcome!

I have seen a lot of flowers from the car this week that look like that. I was assuming they are perenial sunflowers and/or Jerusalem artichoke. Do you concur?

The only flowers I'm seeing right now are fields upon fields of golden rod (I'm feelin' it, too). Perhaps this frost advisory we have tonight will kill 'em all so I can breath easier? It's supposed to be 36 degrees tonight!

I like the pic of Alexis and the sunflowers....
Pavement ants are nifty looking...
