Two Paintbrushes
I quite like this flower just because it's my favorite colour.

Species: Castilleja miniata (Giant Red Indian Paintbrush)

White Paintbrush
This is probably Castilleja parviflora var. albida but apparently this species hybridizes quite easily so it's tough to be specific (and I know nothing).

Species: Castilleja parviflora (Small-flowered Paintbrush)

Wild Carrot Gone To Seed
I saw these same plants earlier in the summer - I was quite impressed how large the seeds were.
Species: Daucus carota (wild carrot, Queen Anne's lace, bird's nest)

Wild Carrot Undershot
Yes, it is cliché, but sometimes a cliché is better than no shot at all. I wound up lying on a bunch of blackberry so getting up wasn't too comfortable.
Species: Daucus carota (wild carrot, Queen Anne's lace, bird's nest)

Wild Carrot Arching Into Birds Nest
At first I thought this was the flower before it blooms - turns out this is after it blooms.
Species: Daucus carota (wild carrot, Queen Anne's lace, bird's nest)

Sea Blush
There was a large patch of this native plant. It made me smile. I wish I used more DOF and a tripod.

Leaves Curling In Mimosa Pudica
Mimosa Pudica, sometimes called "sensitive plant" is something Helen remembers from Hong Kong as a kids. You can buy it in the flower market. Turns out it an invasive plant from the Americas. Oh well.
Species: Mimosa pudica (sensitive plant)

Bright Golden Aster In Dry Grass
I like how you get a splash of colour in a dry and drab background of dead grass. The park labeled this as "Chrysopsis villosa", but apparently that name is now out of date - it's "Heterotheca villosa var. villosa"
Species: Heterotheca villosa (hairy false goldenaster, hairy goldenaster)

Antelope Brush
This plant and it's crazy deep roots (much deeper than the plant is tall) is the cornerstone of this ecology.
Species: Purshia tridentata (antelope bitterbrush)
