A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Project Noah Nature School
Gaillardia pulchella
Long stemmed flower. Had a large seed head that was reddish or burnt orange in color. We could not find any that had petals. Update: Thank you Brian38 for the i.d.
These flowers were found in a filed next to our school. They can bloom year round, but we see them around here mostly during spring and summer.
One of my students spotted this flower. We were lucky to get such a close photograph of the bee!
Thank you to Brian, for the info. and the congratulations on our nomination! Thank you Maria for the kind words. Thank you Project Noah for the nomination! The students will be so excited to hear this wonderful news! It is an honor!
Your spotting has been nominated for the Spotting of the Week. The winner will be chosen by the Project Noah Rangers based on a combination of factors including: uniqueness of the shot, status of the organism (for example, rare or endangered), quality of the information provided in the habitat and description sections. There is a subjective element, of course; the spotting with the highest number of Ranger votes is chosen. Congratulations on being nominated!
