Several out flying over wet marsh and saltgrass meadows along Amargosa River. One flying fast and flashing into creosote desert. Around 9-9:30 pm Pacific, dark with crecesent moon. Difficult to photograph, I have several video clips of flights: flashing 3-5 times often in an irregular flight. Strong fliers and sometimes moving fast between flashes. 3-7 feet above ground in display flights.

jimandre描述
Eastern New York Mountains showing about 50% mortality this past year in California junipers. Similar mortality is being observed throughout the desert southwest highlands, likely the result of the 2-year extreme dry spell (2021-22), enhanced by climate warming over past decades. Apparently last summer's big monsoon and this winter's rains came a little too late.

Photos from one patch of especially dense growth, but they were scattered all around the area east of the pseudo vernal pool in this fallow ag type area. This was the thickest patch where cover as pictured was spread over a 25 m long edge of a swale.

Because you can never have too many poppies. Late spring 1998. The grass seedheads are a non-native species, Bromus tectorum (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/20217085).

Found this hidden gem thru a tip on a wildflower hotline site. Not sure exactly where it was -- somewhere near the Poppy Reserve, but south of the main road down in a little hollow nestled up against the foothills. Have been poring over Google Maps trying to find an arroyo & Joshua trees that match, but no luck.

2003 was a banner year for the hills around Gorman, CA. I5, the main highway connecting northern & southern CA, goes right thru this pass. The blue is Valley Lupine (abundant, forming spectacular hillside displays); the yellow, coreopsis.

2003 was a spectacular year for the hills around Gorman, CA (I5, the main highway connecting northern & southern CA, goes right thru this pass). This mix contains at least 5 species in bloom: the tall blue flowers are Valley Lupine (Lupinus microcarpus), the little round light blue ones are Bluehead Gilia (Gilia capitata), the yellow daisy-like ones are Coreopsis, the little yellow coils are Fiddleneck (Amsinckia menziesii), & the orange is CA Poppy (Eschscholzia californica).
