field notes, mmxix-v-x

There was a volunteer work crew out at the ranch clearing some brush for a new therapy space. I was afraid they had cut down this ancient native Eve's Necklace but thankfully it was spared. (It's in a scruffy patch with some agarita, creeper vines and junipers growing in and around it so it's easy to miss, unless you're one of those giant early spring bumblebees that always knows exactly when they're blooming.)
