Was reminded of the time I had sunflowers suddenly arise on the edges of my garden.
We have chickens and the seed mixture we like to give them contains sunflower seeds. Given where they grew, my conclusion was that the chickens ate them and the seeds came out, uh, let’s say fertilized.
There’s a metaphor in there somewhere.
Multiple sunflowers growing in a garden bed along a wooden fence. The main sunflower in the center-left is fully bloomed with yellow petals and a dark center. To the right, a younger sunflower bud is beginning to open, showing emerging yellow petals. Large serrated green leaves are visible throughout, and trees can be seen in the background.
Close-up view of a large sunflower head showing the intricate pattern of the dark center composed of tightly packed seeds. Yellow petals radiate outward from the center. A dark-colored bee is visible on the flower’s center, and green leaves frame the bottom of the image.
