Common Garden Status & Creatures Tended by Ants

The picture below shows the head that is leading the pack to flowering (row 46.67 pos 953.67). Its ray florets are spreading. As of June 22 about 50 heads had ray florets that were "up" (the ray florets were longer than the bracts of the receptacle).

These are pictures that I took in the common garden today.

Can you spot an aphid in the photo above?

Great photos. I clicked the bottom image to see it full size. Amazing detail. Are those both aphids?
