Tufted Globe Amaranth (Gomphrena caespitosa) 2022.4.29#2192.4. This was a real bonus, there are almost no other wildflowers blooming where I found these Mariposa's and this is a very rare plant in the U.S. Blooming and showing extremally tiny yellow flowers amongst the silvery white sepals. Yavapai County Arizona.

  • A pair of Desert Mariposa Lilly's in stark contrast to the desert habitat I discovered them in. 2022.4.13#0445.5. Yavapai County Arizona. A 26.48mb jpeg I developed from a capture out of an iphone13.
  • The same two Desert Mariposa's in the previous image showing more geography. 2022.4.13#0455.4. Yavapai County Arizona.
  • I found this Desert Mariposa just as it was about to unfold for the first time. Wish I had time to watch it for a couple hours and get the progression of the event but I needed to look at more country. This was the 7th bloomer I found at this location, and that was two more plants then I'd found in the first five years since I've lived here. I could have never dreamed that I would find a couple of more locations before dark and see over a hundred blooming Desert Mariposa's. Especially because there is almost nothing else blooming where I'm finding these Desert Mariposa's. 2022.4.13#2024.3. Yavapai County Arizona.
  • A picture perfect pair of Desert Mariposa Lilly's (Calochortus kennedyi) 2022.4.29#7218.3. In the first 4 years I lived in Arizona I had only found 5 single blooming Desert Mariposa Lilly's. There are almost no desert wildflowers here this year but by the time I was done this spring I had seen close to 350 Desert Mariposa's. Yavapai County Arizona.

  • A Dall Sheep Ewe. 2006.9.3#0102.6. I watched this Ewe come from half way across Primrose Ridge. I had no where to hide so I just hunkered down. She just kept coming and coming right toward me passing 15 meters away giving me this casual glance and dropping into Savage Canyon. Denali Park Alaska..
