California Wildflowers Ablaze Near Mariposa

Wildflower Display Near Mariposa California Photo by by Barbara L. Steinberg© 

Despite the wintry rains and overcast, this first seasonal wildflower display outside Mariposa California along Hwy. 140 was springtime at its finest. On the YARTS (Yosemite Area Regional Transportation System) bus to Yosemite National Park, I had to scramble to snap this photo through blurred glass. But the beauty of the moment is clear.

As the California wildflower season unfolds, check out the Theodore Payne Foundation Wildflower Hotline and Carol Leigh's Wildflower Hotsheet for updates.
