Natural History Wanderings

Anza Borrego Desert State Park’s current wildflower report.  They state:

“The quality and extent of flower displays are governed by a variety of environmental factors that are not only beyond our control but hard to predict. Annual wildflowers have pretty much finished their display for this season, but colorful shrubs can still be found in some of the canyons and in isolated areas along highway S-2 through the southern end of the park. Cacti are still blooming here and there, Agave is coming into bloom, and desert trees such as the Palo Verde and Desert  Willow are absolutely stunning!”
