Sunflowers

One mammoth sunflower stalk before it developed lots of heads.
A droopy stalk with lots of droopy heads needing to be cut off the main stalk.
I want to save my sunflowers from critters and birds getting to the seeds. 
All the tiny flowers have dried.
What it looks after some of flowers have been removed.
All of these heads will come inside to dry. Once the green part has turned brown the seeds are ready to be removed. Some seeds will be saved for next year, some we will eat, and the remainder will be feed to the birds this winter.
