As promised in my earlier "Spring Collection" blog post, here I present several
echinacea photos (plus one bird). This red echinacea variety is new to our garden this
year.
These have bloomed out with striking red (and white) color. I had a hard time
deciding which views to share, so I decided to share many.

While photographing the echinacea, this robin decided to visit. Since I had my macro lens rather than my telephoto lens on my camera, I couldn't get a close-up shot in-camera, because the robin wasn't particularly close to me. However, I managed to capture this from about 20 feet away, then cropped and enhanced with LightRoom's recently introduced AI-based "super resolution". The jury is still out about whether or not robin's care about echinacea, but I think not. It was the nearby cherry tree that held interest.

This is a different bloom than shown in the previous photo; note the thinner petals.
