The wildflowers are sparse this year. The lack of rain in the fall means for a poor display of wildflowers. And the blight with the bees has impacted the pollination, thus fewer blossoms.
The ranch is parched. Everything is brown. Then you see these bright yellow blossoms. It is an amazing sight. The prickly pear cactus is in bloom. No one really likes these plants but these bright yellow blossoms brighten up an otherwise dull scene. You would wonder how the plant can put out such a flower in such dry surroundings. The cattle eat the leaves too, prickles and all. It seems like a miracle.
