The Long Trail


 When I was at the garden that early morning, I took a hike on the long trail that leads past all the displays of how native peoples lived in the desert many, many years ago. I posted photos of those displays here. When I got to the little pond, I noticed they had cut down all the tall cattails that were growing around the pond.  Now I could actually see the water.

These yerba mansa plants all around the pond were blooming and looking very pretty.

Also while I was on that trial, I took another photo of the "hole-in-the-rock" formation.  You might remember that I posted a photo of this mountain in silhouette last month.  In this photo you can see that  hole very clearly.

  4. I like the yerba mansa plants. I bet the redwing blackbirds love that pond with the reeds.
