As mentioned in my previous post I went on a hike up to the top of the Sierra Buttes last week. Here are some shots of Critters and flowers along the hike. This has been a very dry year so the flowers where not as abundant as my previous visits, but still some nice ones and a bunch of butterflies. All comments questions and suggestions are welcome.

Chipmunk at the top on the mountain (I bribed him with a piece of granola bar to take his picture.)

Hi UTMike
Thanks for checking out the flowers and for the comment. This year it was so dry that many of the wildflowers where already gone, but there where still a few left for me to get some shots off. In years past there where many more flowers on this trail. Hopefully a good rainy/snowy season next winter will bring them back.

Hi kpmac
Thanks for checking out the flower and critter shots and for the comment. Yep #3 was a different kind of flower than I had noticed before. I believe #4 was the same type just not as fully in bloom.
