It was really nice to be out in the sunshine today. I took some time to check on what's in bloom, and listened to the myriad of birds singing. The Showy Orchis is still looking great, and is all over the Casa Burro Trail. There are lots of plants that can be seen from the trail. I took this pic of the Dwarf Crested Iris the other day. These guys don't last very long, but there are still a few buds on other plants.
Without further ado...
