Urban Wildflowers

Last week I took a road trip to the Antelope Valley California Poppy Reserve to view the spring superbloom of flowers, but you don't always have to leave the city to explore nature. Sometimes it's as simple as taking a hike in your neighborhood. This morning I set out to discover the the urban wildflowers blossoming on my street and check out the capabilities of a new camera. Granted, the flowering shrubs I found are more cultivated than wild, but it afforded a relaxing opportunity to get out of the house without having to go far. And I met a couple of neighbors, one of which invited me into her backyard to see how she brings the wilderness home.

So step outside and start exploring; you never know what you'll see or who you'll meet.
