Western Australia Wildflowers - Hidden Beauty

This path is teaming with wild flowers if you look hard enough

Today I am thrilled to be opening this weeks Photo Friday as Jen's guest over at Pierced Wonderings.





Jen is a teacher, writer, and photographer capturing the magical moments of life on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. 

Photo Friday is a weekly photo link-up where photographers from all over the globe share their work and support each other. You don't need to be a professional photographer to join in, so head on over and take a look.

Today I am showcasing some of the natural beauty of Western Australian Wildflowers, head over to Photo Friday to see these wildflowers up close and personal.

What you could not see in the shots I shared with Photo Friday goers is the incredible scale of the flowers. 

Hidden in plain sight, they are teeny tiny little things, easily missed unless you know to look for them.

      Aren't they just? When I first came and I heard everyone raving about the amazing flowers I expected to see fields of bright flowers, but it's not the case at all.

    Great shots! The fringe lily is stunning.

    I found it super-extra-interesting to look at these. I live in central Florida, where many Australian plants have been introduced (and some have become invasive). Although they're different species, there are many wildflowers around the area that resemble a few of these. My favorite was the Sundew, because there's one in my yard that looks exactly like it - but it grows to four feet tall!
