It could be the odd rain timing was really right for bulbs - and dandelions! I’ve been surveying Salt Point for NOAA for five years now and this was the very best bulb year. Its fading fast now.”

They sure look pretty! These wild onions are endemic to California. Thanks to Kathleen for allowing me to share her photo here.
