Finally got a break in the weather and I'm out walking the neighborhood without sweating -- relief! Yesterday morning found a Datura blooming in the park. They go by all kinds of names but one common name is moon flower because they open at night and close shortly after the sun rises -- very toxic. The Catalpa trees have all gone to seed; took a photo of hanging seed pods yesterday and this morning I found some pea flowers in a back alley on the fence.

I like them all. Nice composition, sharp images and, except for the last one, relatively uncluttered - the "pods" or whatever, do detract from the flowers just a bit, but maybe they will be flowering in a day or so.
