Hey Richard, we just missed you, or perhaps not. We also went out today to avoid the weekend crowds, which must be insane. I have done the Lancaster and Anza Borrego fields in the past, and NOTHING matches this year. I could not believe how dense the poppies were, and the mixture of purple, blue-greens, whites and yellows was just beyond crazy. I also got to finally see close-up a painted lady butterfly (last picture). In Los Angeles we have seen massive numbers of these butterflies all over the city, like nothing I have ever experienced before. Perhaps nature has a chance after all.

Thanks for the wonderful shots!
Keeping my fingers cross that the higher temps will get things going booming in Carrizo in the next two weeks!

Let me know if you get any beta on that, especially in the Temblor Range!

Will do, Oleander, Jimr, and myself are planning to visit, if it is a superbloom at least rivaling 2017, maybe we can meetup.

Make a note though. The city has been closing down access because it was overrun. They even brought in law enforcement from other jurisdictions due to massive "invasion."
