Natural History Wanderings

Here are the links to DesertUSA‘s current wildflower bloom reports and photos.

The 2017 super bloom wildflower season is still in the Carrizo Plain National Monument, and there are still be many good areas to see wildflowers for the next few weeks. Joshua Tree NP, Mojave Desert and Anza Borrego DSP have had cooler weather and some wildflowers and cactus are still in bloom. Nevada and Arizona are now blooming. During the week is the best time to visit the desert. There may be more rain in California this week.
