Tournesol

One of the Sunflowers we grew in the garden this year - I love the French name for them Tournesol - for the fact that they turn to the sun - you can watch ours move from East to straight up to West every day - amazing...

They're for the birds...

    Nice of you to feed the birds. Do they just eat them from the stalk? E

    Hey Mom and Karen,

    I think they do just eat it from the plant - some seeds are gone already - we only planted four of these biggies - one at each corner of the garden. I had Karen's picture in mind when I took this one...

    Love,

    T

    Oh how lovely! I believe you can take the head off then put three holes in it and string and hang it , kind of tripod style if that makes sense, then the birds land and peck on it too:-)
