Oasis

A Longspar Columbine with bee at a hidden oasis in Big Bend National Park.

In the desert a place with water is bound to be special. There are several springs, seeps, etc that have neat things to be found there. Usually shade, flowers, birds, wildlife, etc.

After a hike across an open sunny hillside, one finds this small shady oasis with water flowing for at least a few dozen feet. Nestled among the rocks here one finds bright yellow Longspar Columbine.

I just happen to find one with a bee in it.
