      An abundance of Texas Wildflowers! Many are still blooming as a result of the unusual weather we’re having. All of these wildflowers were shot in Heartland on Sunday, June 2nd, around the lake and down a country road.    I had fun discovering some new Wildflowers that I never saw before. For example, in the first photograph, I shot an Antelope Horn. Oh, how my heart leapt with joy to see new and different varieties and a kaleidoscope of colors, shapes, and sizes of plants that Mother Nature prepared here on good old Texas earth. Unlike the common Evening Primrose, this was the first White one I saw!      Many common Wildflowers never cease to amaze me.

Last Tuesday, April 3, 2012, the DFW Metroplex area suffered the wrath of approximately 12 tornados.  One of those tornados hit the Diamond Creek Subdivision of Forney, Texas and was officially rated as a category E-3, the strongest of all of the 12 tornados.
