Natural History Wanderings

Gary Regner Photography has a new wildflower update  for Hill Country/West Texas Update  for March 28, 2013

Some parts of west Texas have some nice wildflowers and I found parts of the Hill Country that are nicely green with some bluebonnets early in bloom. Peak for bluebonnets in the Hill Country should be mid April.

IH 10 from Balmorhea to Ft Stockton: some nice displays of wildflowers along the road; purple feather dalea, orange and pink mallow, bladderpod, verbena, yellow primrose, guara and several others spotted in bloom

US 290 from west of Fredericksburg to Johnson City: greener than to the north, however, still few bluebonnets and only along the road. They are in early bloom, peak will most likely be mid April.
