Flying over a patch of wildflowers. I believe it is called Purple Loosestrife.
They are an invasive plants but they look nice IMO.

I like that you used the vertical crop on this one and the bottom flowers adds a bonus to the image, KARL.

Gorgeous setting Karl. I agree, the plants do look good, and what a stroke of good fortune to capture this Great Egret flying over them.
