The weather was beautiful this morning. Perfect for a hike. There is still some water in the stream which surprises me because usually by this time of year, the streams here have all dried up. It's nice to still hear the babbling as I hike the trail.
The birds were out this morning and the were singing up a storm. Even heard a few quail off in the distance.
There are still a few wildflowers, but not like there was during the month of March when the hillsides and canyons were covered with so many colorful plants.
Sounds perfect! Trails with streams or waterfalls tend to be my favorites. What a wonderful picture of the butterfly!
ReplyDeleteThank you, thank you for taking me on such a gorgeous walk through your world. Is that a kite swallowtail butterfly? He is a beauty. I see why you hike Placerita Canyon often. About wild flowers, I read just recently that Wild Flowers fade fast but Blooming Idiots last forever...I hope they weren't talking bout me? But, could be.
ReplyDeletehave a great hiking week
What Dar said made me remember something my grandfather said about us. We were like wild flowers,just blooming idiots. I loved him dearly.
