Wild Hyacinths
Spiky Flowering Plants
I see these needle-like flowers on whatever type of grass this is all the time, but I’ve never found out what it’s called.
Bzzzzzz!
Bzzzzzz! A honey bee visiting clover flowers in the strip of lawn along the sidewalk. I still can't get over being able to get closeup photos like this using my phone.
Blue-eyed Grasses
I walk the north side of this road all the time and have never seen these tiny blue flowers. But they’re all over the south side of the same street.
Buckeye Butterfly
Buckeye #butterfly spotted in a field near LAX airport. There were a lot of butterflies of at least three types flitting about in the mustard, but this is the only one that stayed still long enough for me to catch a photo.

Ricinus
Largeflower Pink-Sorrel
The iceplant is landscaping. The purple flowers are the ones I’m listing as a “wild” observation.
