Common Sunflower

Most of the Common Sunflowers have shriveled up and been devoured by American Goldfinches by now, but there are just a few that continue to bloom as if it was the middle of the summer.  This Common Sunflower in particular was going strong despite the cold and the wind, ignoring the fact it is almost November.  Look closely and you can see there are still buds getting ready to bloom.
