Kern County Spring Flowers

Rainy February and March followed by a week of warm sunshine made the hills of Kern Canyon (China Gardens off of Hwy 178) come alive with color on March 12, 2005. Our yard was also vibrant. Click on any of the thumbnails below to bring up a larger version (most are 640x480 in size). Let me know if you would like higher resolution versions for printing.

See Duane Shoffner's photo album for more wildflower pictures. Also, the Spring 2006 Flower Rainbow album.
