Lilly Pad Made a Flower

This flower is insane! It is all closed up when I wake up in the morning. Then every afternoon it opens up for a few hours and then goes back into hibernation. Hope it lasts for the rest of the season. It would be really sweet to put a time-lapse camera on it and make a video of it opening and closing. There's a second bud starting to pop up out of the water - maybe it will yield the same beauty. I notice that the frogs seem to like it, just chillin' on the rocks and lilly pads.
