Natural History Wanderings

Gary Regner Photography has a March 29, 2014 posting  and wildflower report for the Austin, Texas area

Bluebonnets and painbrush are appearing in numbers not seen in many years in Austin this year. The copious rainfall in September and October that resulted in widespread flooding seems to have spurred a mass bloom of wildflowers. There should be no shortage of places to get your photos in the bluebonnets this year for Austinites. We should be at peak in a week or two.

Going further south towards San Antonio the bluebonnets are far less numerous especially in the north and northwest part of town. I visited this area on 3/28 and it was dry with few bluebonnets.
