One of our days at Lake Tahoe we went on a little walk. I hesitate to call it a hike because it was not too far and mainly level ground. Above is a flower-filled meadow we walked through.
I'm not nearly as good as
Mary, but I do try to take photos of flowers when I'm out walking. I don't know what any of these are, maybe someone can tell me?
Aren't they beautiful? This orange lily really caught my eye. I can't grow these in my garden, but here they are growing wild and perfect.
A pretty creek along the way.
This should have been in the "Fauna" post on Friday, but I missed it. Sorry
Happy Sunday from Amongst The Oaks.

Fauna on Friday, Pink on Saturday and Flora for Sunday. It is all just perfect.
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are wonderful. I wouldn't know the names, either.
I didn't know such flower filled meadows existed anymore! Thanks so much for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteI just wanted you to know I have your lovely blog in my Google Reader and look forward to every update!♥
It is so interesting to see someone elses world. Thanks for your comment - nice to meet you!
ReplyDeleteThe first pink flower is fireweed - it grows wild in spots that have been recently disturbed in some way. The purple flower is a lupine, and the second pink flower is a thistle of some sort. There are lots of varieties of thistles in pinks and purples.
