Early Spring Wildflowers (post 1)

I am trying to catalog the wildflowers we see during our daily hikes. This is going to be a project that takes some effort...there are already quite a few flowers blooming.


Miner's Lettuce in bloom

Here is a close-up.





Slender cinquefoil



Manzanita- not really a wildflower but a blooming shrub


This is just starting to bloom and I could tell the minute I touched it from the fragrance what it was.


Here is another shot.
That is it for today. I did see hounds tongue but I didn't take a photo. ...I will today and include it in the next post.
