Invasive

[Alisa]

Hi, The second to the last weekend of July I was in SW CO trying to capture some wildflowers. As it turned out It was hard for me to get anywhere this year due to monsoon, mudslides muddy slick roads etc...So I photographed what I could and I think I still came away with some great photos! This is up on 550 (Crystal Lake) This was right after sunrise the water was so still so I pulled over to photograph this area. I was told by some others that were there that these Daisies are not native. They sure are pretty. However I read that plans like this can harm the eco system meaning the native plants have a harder time flourishing.

I will go along with pretty. Nice scene for them as well.

These went feral up here in the NW too and in late spring they bloom along the freeways. I think they are pretty cool.

Lots of invasive species are pretty, and these sure are.

The flowers provide a nice foreground for this image.
