Inspired: Wildflowers

Wildflowers were out in force for our coastal ride. I tried to identify as many as I could during our many “terrain breaks,” starting with silver bush lupine:

Indian paintbrush (these were shockingly bright in person):

Milkmaids? Potato flowers? Not sure:

Wild douglas iris:

Blackberry blossoms:

Sticky monkeyflower:

I also spotted yellow lupine, California poppies, crimson columbine, queen anne’s lace and ceanothus, also called coast blue blossom.
