These are probably the last of the flower pics for this year. This is a mystery rose, that was supposed to be Absolutely, but was obviously mis-marked (Absolutely is a yellow blend - the company did replace it). I was amazed that it bloomed after we had had frost for several nights:
Well, if there are no more flower pics, then I guess I have to entertain you with bird pics. First Here is a titmouse:
Then there is a goldfinch and a woodpecker. I am only using this picture as it came out the best for the goldfinch (my other goldfinch pic is a bit blurry):
A better one of the woodpecker (I am unsure if this is a Downey or if it is a juvenal Hairy - it sure seems to be a juvenal):
I haven't gotten any good pictures of White Breasted or Red Breasted Nuthatches, but one day I will get one to sit still for a nanosecond and snap a shot!
You brought up a good question--how to tell the juvenile hairy from a downy. I dunno.

Heh, I thought the spelling of "juvenal" that the spellcheck suggested looked funny, but went with it anyway.
