You know, I never post photos of flowers on this blog because, except for the wildflowers along Highway 74, there aren't any in Deep Canyon. Pinyon trees, yes, but flowers? No. However, yesterday I stopped by Desert Ridge villas to take some photos of their waterfalls and I saw a flower bed full of beautiful, colorful flowers, and I just couldn't resist taking some photos of them. They were wet from the sprinklers and as I left, a hummingbird came by to enjoy them. I got a few photos of him before he flew off. I thought you might enjoy some color this morning, so here are the flowers. We seem to be having an early spring this year, so I'm not sure how many wildflowers I'll see this year.
They have a 'lifting' to our souls. Pretty!
ReplyDeleteAny flower is welcome this time of year:) I enjoy having them around in the desert. They are starting to pop up all over. Nice macros.
ReplyDeleteI love your flower shots. I can't wait to get out to the desert soon to see what is in bloom.
ReplyDeleteAt the Living Desert awhile back, there were some blooms on the cacti but I'm craving even more desert blooms.
I'm wondering when would be best to go up to Joshua tree area.
