My friends Luiz, Denise and Pupo run the Today's Flowers Meme, check it out. Come and join with your flower photos. Sunday at 7 GMT is the post time.
This is a wild flower that grows in the Spring and Summer at the dock of the lake that I fish. They look like some sort of Daisey. You can see a lot of blooms yet to burst into color.
I used the petal color to crop them out for a closer look.
If you know the name to be different let me know.

The yellow framing really brings out the colors of those flowers! Very nice!
Hi Tom- If I'm not mistaken, it looks like you have found one the Bidens species, or tickseed sunflower. They are in the same family as sunflowers, purple coneflowers, and daisies called the Asteraceae or compositae, because each flower head is made up of many, many little flowers.
Good stuff, thanks for sharing!
Tom
How happy those little flowers are - me, too. We are having a glorious day here...little Emily and I just returned from a l-o-n-g walkl. It was wonderful.
They look like something we call butterflower (butter = yellow) but I really don't know. Guess you should listen to Tom! Anyhow, they are beautifull!
It seems a lot of us are yearning for spring and posting colorful shots to forget about the cold and gray outside.
Nice shots!
Lovely yellow flowers, enjoyed these immensely, including the very nice oval frame. Roll on Spring but in the meantime we look at your pretty flowers!
My guess would have been bur marigold, which is on the smae page in my Audubon Guide as the tick sunflower. They both bloom August to October, and are about the same size. From here, you need an expert to identify it.
But I agree that it is a colourful flower, and the yelloe frame helps to make the blossoms stand out!
What cute little yellow flowers and such nice shots of them too.
:-)
So pretty and wonderfully sunny in colour. A wonderful promise that spring is on its way. ;-)

The flowers are so bright and cheery-makes me long for summer and all its blooms!
They are just so sweet they make me smile. MB
I don't know what they are but I like them and I love the way you framed them in yellow.
pretty flower and great photos.

Love the yellows in that flower. Yes, does seem like a cousin of daisies, sunflowers and other asteraceae. Fun to be able to learn the actual name of that particular flower.
That was a beautiful splash of color for today.Thanks.
Blessings,Ruth
Love those flowers FG :D
Hi Fishing,
The name is not important when flowers are so wonderful!
Thanks for posting every week!
Luiz

Great flowers, so yellow! The squirrel was nifty. Too cold still, for me in your country!
I want spring to come!
nice ones!
Are these blooming right now? When did you take these shots?
Lovely framed in yellow as someone has already mentioned FG!
Nicely done.
Our snow is all melted and I actually have things coming up in my flowerbeds. :)
The yellow of those flowers is so joyful! Very attractive pictures, Fishing Guy.
A lovely colorful post Tom. They make a wonderful change to all the snow pictures. :)
it looks like a sunflower to me, beautiful color!
Fishing, we have wild flowers like this one here in Brasil. But I do not say the name.
Tanks for visiting my blog.
Fishing,
My apologise: I do not know the name. If I knew I'll say to you.
so bright FG and the frame complemented the flowers well. great job my friend.
Very pretty! I look forward to cheerful things like this! You should link this to Mellow Yellow Monday :-)

Beautiful frame, which matches the flowers! I am afraid I don't know the name either. But it seems that your namesake knows the name.
Very cute! especially the framed one.
