Orange flower

This is typical of the flowers that surround our condo.  This flower is a little past its prime, and it appears to have provided food for s little nibbling around the edges of its petals, which is important o for the food chain that supports so many birds as we have.  One of the benefits of a tropical climate is that there are flowers in bloom all year.

This week we are showing photos of Chicago on our on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site, featuring different lighting conditions in America's "Second City."

    Yes, it does look a little tired and worn out, but its color is still vivid.

    Oh, I recognize this flower! It is one of those thingamajiggie flowers with multiple petals in lots of bright colors. Right? Zinnia, maybe?
