Wildflowers on Steroids!
Introducing one of my new favorite wildflowers - Matilija Poppies.  They're humongous!  And so beautiful and yummy smelling :)  They are growing profusely in some places in Lytle Creek Canyon.

And a few other pretty flowers found in the canyon this spring...


Up the canyon a little ways and yucca and fremontia are stealing the show.  Yucca are so tall that they are only flower that you can see from 10 miles away, lol


Not sure what this one is...

And now for a couple of cute critters!  A baby ground squirrel and California Quail
