JohnRich 4 #1 April 18, 2010 Flower photos from springtime here in Texas. This first batch is from this weekend's canoe trip on the Colorado River. It's not THE Colorado River, but the one by the same name in Texas. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnRich 4 #2 April 18, 2010 Flower 6s.JPG - Last one from the Colorado River. Then the remainder are from last month in the Texas desert, west of Del Rio, along the border with Mexico. Desert plants tend to be rather prickly. Flower 3s.JPG is a yucca plant, one of the few I can actually identify. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

masterrig 1 #4 April 19, 2010 You really got some good shots, John! Here in the 'desert country' of West Texas, we got a lot of moisture over the winter months and really set things up for the spring. The smaller barrel cactus varieties are in bloom as well as the prickly pear and 'weeds'. This past week, we've had a total of about an inch of rain and that has helped to get things going. I love this time of year! Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,589 #5 April 19, 2010 This is a great year for flowers here. We spent the last week camping at Enchanted Rock, and it was spectacular.
