Natural History Wanderings

Bear Valley is too deep in grass for a good show this year.  The roads are fine, with only a couple of wet spots.  I was surprised at that.  The Leesville Rd heading east towards Williams has been paved since the last time we were out that way, which made for a very nice ride to Colusa.  Couldn’t get around the Buttes to the north, as everything was flooded on the west side.

North Table Mt. is another area that’s blooming wildly this year, with way too many inconsiderate flower-trampling people & dogs.  Gorgeous flower vistas, revolting behaviors.  CNPS needs to post several hundred signs saying “If you love the flowers, don’t trample them!”  Yeesh.
