Welcome back and thanks for reporting on the conditions during your trip. Very nice work on the photos. Looks like you had lots of photo opportunities there.
No need to wait until next year..there are many more wildflowers out there ready to put on a great show. I was surprised by the dramatic displays of coreopsis along I-30 and I-45.
I encourage everyone to get out and seek those out of the way spots where you can get that close up shot with a butterfly, bee, hummingbird moth and a flower.
We are moving beyond the peak of the displays of bluebonnets and paintbrush, but entering the displays of firewheels, coreopsis, and mealy sage. Then there are the endangered flowers like the Texas blue bells and blue bell gentian.
Soon the common sunflowers will begin their march across the fields followed by the maximilian sunflowers and gayfeathers.
On my trip to Ennis and back I was treated with a new display that I had never seen before...the herbertia.
Seek and you will find many wildflowers throughout the year in Texas. And each provides a unique view and photo opportunity.
I do have plans to host a photo workshop next year in the Hill Country area.
