Zipper (MDB): (D. Sindt, R. 1978)., Sdlg. 230. MDB, 5 1/2" (14 cm), E-M "S. yellow; F. smooth butter yellow, slightly blended; medium blue beard. Gingerbread Man X Sun Sparkle. Sindt 1979 HM 1981, AM 1983, Cap-W 1985." This is the official AIS Check List data for Zipper.
The weather has been nasty for the past two days (not much better today), and the heavy rains and high winds have pretty much beat up these little flowers. Nevertheless, with camera in hand I headed out this morning hoping to at least get a few pictures. SDB's I found to be beat up also, but I still wanted a picture for my Journal, so here goes.

This is a picture in bright sunlight, and one of my most difficult colors to photograph. The flowers are so tiny that just getting near them with the camera is a task! This overhead view I'm sure leaves much to be desired, but at least I have a pic for the record.
