Joshua Tree National Park, 2 trails

We had the pleasure of spending another day with our son Christopher and share with him a day in Joshua Tree National Park. We decided on two short trails today, the Barker Dam and Hidden Valley trails.

More spring flowers in bloom. Most desert wildflowers are yellow, but there are many varieties.

This hummingbird enjoys the flowers too.

Interesting rocks provide some shade.

Erosion can create some abstract art.

Lizard enjoying the warm sun.

A smaller lizard scampering along the rocks.

There was actually water behind the Barker Dam.

Joshua Tree branches reaching for the skies.

Joshua trees are very unique and each has it's own beauty, kind of like people.
