Description

This is the most amazing display of Calochortus kennedyii we've ever seen! The display extends 3 to 5 miles south of the Haiwee reservoir road and equally to the north. It extends from hwy 395 to the reservoir to the east. There are 5 to 15 plants per square meter. It must be 100,000s of plants, in full bloom on 5/13.

So happy to see a bobcat again on our property. Hopefully it can reduce the number of voles.

Observation #5900 Preening female seemed completely unconcerned with having her photo taken. A tagged bird, I couldn't read the numbers on her right leg.

Bobcat on our property. It’s a frequent visitor and as a result the ground squirrel and gopher population is under control.

Greeted me at the start of my hike. Stayed completely still for a long time, before sinking backward into the burrow.
