Wildflower Hotspots, Information and Resources

I have expanded and updated the wildflower pages (Wildflower Reports What's Blooming Where) at Natural History Wanderings. New links have been added; bad links removed; and new pages created with additional resources.

Here are some of the pages:

• California Wildflower Bloom Reports (Recent wildflower bloom reports and updates on Natural History Wanderings)

• Links to California Wildflower Websites

(Series of postings on wildflower hotspots on Natural History Wanderings)

Thanks for sharing, Sandy...what a great resource.

Sandy, An outstanding resource - thank you. FYI, the problems with the Crested Butte Wildflower Festival's website have been cleared up. It was appropriated by an eastern European porn factory late last June for about 5 days but that has all been cleared up and the site is secure with the appropriate security measures. I hope you can change your reference to their site so that users will not be worried about it. By the way, it wasn't a virus; rather a URL re-direct to the "adult" content. The "wild" flowers were a little "wilder" than had been planned. This per the Executive Director of the Crested Butte Wildflower Festival, Sue Wallace.

Thanks very much Sandy. I'm sure we will all be looking at this source in the months ahead.

Doug,

Thanks for the update. Correction has been made and website link added. I was in Crested Butte a few years ago the week after the festival and had a great time shooting wildflowers.

Thanks for this great effort!
