RHH's photos with the keyword: glaberrimus

My wife saw the first wildflowers of the season yesterday. I haven't had a chance to get photos so am posting these older photos. These are Sagebrush Buttercups, the flowers she saw. The inset is of Grass Widows, the next to bloom, but none of them have showed themselves yet.

The Sagebrush Buttercup is the first wildflower to bloom in our area. I saw the first ones on March 9 and they are everywhere now, though they will soon be finished. They are followed by the Grass Widows (inset), the Yellow Bells and Camas.

We've been watching for the first signs of spring and have finally found a few the last week or so. Friday we found our first wildflower, too, the Sagebrush Buttercup, so spring is on the way.
