Spring is finally here in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada here in California; the birds singing, the hills are green, and the wildflowers are blooming. The foothills have three basic ecological zones: chaparral, oak woodlands, and pine/oak forest. These wildflowers are from the oak woodland area.

Fabulous! I’m very envious of those photos, I wish I could do as well.Those images took a lot of talent to produce, well done. I’ve bookmarked this site.
