OK, that’s a better shot of the #butterfly. Most likely a #paintedLady.

Just some #mosstodon from a recent hike in the Palos Verdes Peninsula hills near Los Angeles. There’s a nature preserve along one of the canyons with a stream running through it that actually has water after this winter’s repeated storms, unlike when I went there last summer (or was it fall?) And it was completely dry.
And this is a piece I like to call “Damn you, Autofocus! Damn you to Hell!”
I went on a hike today, up in the coastal hills near Los Angeles. I took a trail along a (dry) streambed up through a canyon, which is variously known as George F. Canyon or Georgeff Canyon. No one knows who George (or Georgeff) was – they just found it on an old map when they dedicated the nature preserve.
There was SO. MUCH. POISON OAK. You really do not want to stray much from the path here!

If I lived somewhere where I had a big enough yard and could choose how to use it, I would be all over this.

A #MonarchButterfly spotted over the weekend. Not sure what kind of flower it’s hiding behind.
Spot the #lizard!
(Seriously, I couldn’t tell if it was in frame at the time I took the photo.)

A fox #squirrel spotted running across the lawn at the park.
A walk through a seasonal marsh that’s out of season. (We’ll see how much rain we get this winter.) And a virtual hiking buddy.
