#SilentSunday is only silent because you can't hear me screaming: VOLUNTEER PAW PAW TREE IN MY BACKYARD!!!
Same two. Same flower. Keep dry flowers and stems whenever you can. Focus isn't great. A bit windy & I didn't want to disturb.

'Scarlet Moon' is currently easily the most popular winter flowering grevillea in my garden with bees, butterflies and a myriad of smaller flying beasties enjoying the numerous red 'toothbrush' flowers.
'Scarlet Moon' was one of the first hybrids coming out of the Kings Park, WA breeding program led by Digby Growns to be widely available in SE NSW. Parentage is G. nivea x 'Crowning Glory' which has created a bushier, more spreading version of G. nivea with softer foliage and (more) larger flowers.
Pretty reliable on the east coast where it is often seen in nurseries now. Provides a great winter display - and is always popular with pollinators.

Is this 'Aspen Oyster Mushroom'? It looks over-ripened. I took it off from the aspen tree(a small dead tree).
I am including some other pictures from the surrounding area of Aspen-wooded flatland.

Pink-flower bush
Tamarack Tree(deciduous conifer)
The Canada anemone has started blooming!

Roadside roses. A native rose, possibly Early Wild Rose (Rosa blanda).

Can anyone identify this Ontario Wildflower? The location is East Gwillimbury, in the silt-loam region. Nearby there is a lot of red dogwood, and some willowy looking bushes. It seems happily nestled amongst Asters, Golden-Rod, and Queen-Annes-Lace. It's in the open field, a prairie-like setting, and also found in shady spots between willow bushes and dogwoods.

Hakea 'Burrendong Beauty' is starting to flower in local gardens. This is a really nice hybrid hakea which came up in the Burrendong Arboretum and despite having WA parentage does well in SE NSW summer humidity if the drainage is pretty good. This one has been planted (client's garden - terraced beds) for almost a year now and has starting to fill out a little more this autumn. Will eventually be pruned slightly into a neater mound.
Not uncommon in east coast nurseries although usually only once or twice a year. Always an eye-catcher when in flower.
