My World Tuesday - More Grand Canyon Blooms

I was out on the Walhalla Plateau today where the lightning started Roosevelt Fire burned 5,000 acres in 2007.

Bark after fire
Ponderosa Pines are fire resistant trees. Often when the lower trunk looks charred and dead, the crown is alive and green.

Wild Onion
Nature's remarkable recovery from fire provides a brilliant display of wildflowers.

Larkspur

Lupine
The colors will change throughout the summer.

Sandwort
And I found more New Mexico Locust in bloom. So, because there weren’t any visitors around I ate a flower.

Tastes like peas. Well it is from the legume, or pea, family.
