Two blackfoot daisies

When I walked the trail you heard about last time through woods and meadows along the upper reaches of Bull Creek on September 12th, I saw that the blackfoot daises (Melampodium leucanthum), which have their first flourishing in the spring, were going at it again in goodly numbers. Here you see two of them in a fringe where sunshine and shadows met.
