Pestilential wild roses....verminous, but very green
Thistle
Common Grackle, stealer of eggs and nestlings
Nasty garlic mustard, an invasive, alien weed
Box Elder Samaras, a native, but very weedy tree
Cow birds and an English sparrow stealing seeds
For more Sunday Stills

C'mon now! ENGLISH birds do not STEAL! How slanderous is this? lol.
Dickiebo, lol, I call them Sassenachs
Love the fact that you needed just one word for "Thistle." With those spines showing in the photo, there's no need for more unless it be: "Ouch!"
Seedy characters,the lot of them.
Well done, I hate it when the plain jane birds get all the seed from the colourful birds..:-)
Cool choices :)
YOU DID GREAT! I liked the roses...oh how they can grow!

P.S. Your exchange with Dickiebo is also a hoot!
Wow, you seem to have a lot to chose between. Great pictures, and I your comments.
Plenty of pestiferous pesky things!
Well done! you are much greener than we are here:)
Joated, they sure know how to keep themselves off the bovine dinner menu
FC, indeed!
Ed, bad enough the seeds, but the sparrows drive native birds out of their nests and the darned cowbirds lay their eggs in other birds' nests and leave them to raise their young. Not my favorites.
WB, thanks!
Linda, they smell wonderful in bloom and the rose hips are a tasty nibble when you are out working, but they are horrible in the fields and fences.
Eva, thanks! There are a lot of pesky things out there to choose from.
Shirley, a plethora! lol
Far Side, thanks. We are green for this early and I am grateful for the grass it brings.
Ah! Yes! Beauty in the Beast.
Oh the garlic mustard. How we all battle it and how it refuses our efforts.
This was fun.
Now I'm headed out to battle the beast :)
Dickiebo's comment made my day! Great shots.
Indeed very inviting green and great shots
