Lilium pardalinum, also known as the Leopard Lily or Panther Lily, is blooming now. David Munson got this close up of the beautiful flower.
This plant is native to Oregon, California, and Baja California. It usually grows in damp areas. What a treat to see!
Thanks to David for allowing me to share his photo with you here.
Last night, Saturday night, the fog held back for the fireworks show in Point Arena. And it was quite a dramatic, beautiful show. This morning the fog had moved in. Temps are in the 60s today. Considering all the terrible heat inland, this cooling fog feels like a blessing.
