Lizard Days

It was a good day for lizards at Shell Creek on Sunday April 18. The wildflowers are still blooming, but the grasses are growing taller and covering the remaining blooms. The full fields of yellow carpet are pretty much done, but many interesting and colorful flowers are blossoming in the road cut at the north end of the flower area.

The sun was shining and it was near 70 degrees early in the morning. Lighting is good in the morning, and the lack of breeze makes it easier to photograph flowers without them dancing around in the viewfinder.

And the lizards had the right idea - lounge in the warm sun - but not too far away from a convenient hiding hole.
