Miller Canyon Wildflowers
Still more from Miller Canyon. It is very easy to be so focused that you don't "stop and smell the roses" when you are headed to a specific place with something very specific in mind to photograph. I knew right where to look for the hummingbirds. But, I also knew that they would be around all day. So, I couldn't pass up taking photos of some of the wildflowers, even before the hummingbirds. In the first, there is a small pond, covered with waterlilies. Although not open yet, something about the red bulb attracted me. The second photo is Indian Blanket, a sunflower looking plant but with very distinctive yellow tipped pink leaves and a dark maroon colored ball in the middle. The third photo is Blue Bonnet Lupine, which we see a lot of along the mountain slopes. There is so much beauty in this world it is easy to see a "half filled glass" as flowing over.
