There is a field that I have been going to for the past several years to take pictures of sunflowers. This year, I went early to catch the morning light. The farm planted corn on three sides of the field, shrinking the number of acreage with sunflowers significantly. It does not compare with the miles after miles of sunflower fields that I drove by in South Dakota, but this is perhaps the best we can get in this small state.

A field full of sunflowers ā¦ Hard to miss the beauty on that one! I have never seen how they harvest the seed, would be interesting to watch one year. Great set of images.

The field has to become completely black and unsightly before they harvest the seeds. They use harvesting machines to do it, a very dusty event.

This is still early in the season. When sunflower seeds show up, the bees become even more numerous. Thanks Julie!
