Falling leaves

When you live in the Canadian prairies, you are always mindful that before long the green will go and the white will come.  While I am not very diligent about cleaning up my garden, I do need to harvest leaves and turn them into plates, bowls and more.  this dear little sunflower popped up as yet another volunteer in the front garden this week,and it seems the bees are happy.  Hope you can see them there.
