Flowers starting to bloom

Unlike most of the country, in southern California, winter is the growing season for many of our plants. Once the rains begin things start to rapidly grow and bloom. This year we've been getting some good rain, 6.7" so far in December alone. If this keeps up it should be a good year for the bees.

Here are a few pictures from our garden this morning.
