Walking down the Peregrine Trail a few other flowers tried to catch my attention.
But I was on a mission: a twilight walk to see the purple fields of amazing lupine again this year.
The hike was lovely, but it's not the same, as I didn't have the good view between the ears! Though I was able to get up close to a few lovely flowers, and a couple of beasts too.

| lupine: other colors are available |

| old irrigation canal wall still stands |

| tons of fuzzy caterpillars this year |
Later I paid some attention to Major, who was more interested in the fact the irrigation wheelbarrow had some leftover snacks on the bottom.
He got to snack, and I made a wish soon to be back on the trail, maybe with a view of lupine from between brown ears.

Stunning photos! Thank you for sharing your lovely hike with us. :)
ReplyDeletelove love love your pictures- Springtime in California!! Happy that Major is a sound and happy boy again. I had no idea Lupine came in other color.. so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThanks! The other color doesn't show up as often (the 2-tone is lovely), there is also a pure yellow. I wonder what other regions have?
