Nice picture. As you said it is not much clear but it is very beautiful. Do you know the name of these flowers, is there any season for these flowers?

I'll ask around a bit, glad to hear they are all acoss Aquitaine not just here in 47. edit: Mrs B had asked in the market this morning and apparently yes, it is some kind of collaboration between farmers and hunters.

The ones around us (33) are cosmos and many other flowers too. They all seem to be planted in field that were once pasture. Could this be some kind of set aside thing, as no way could they be used for pasture now , however lovely they may be.
