Borrego Springs, nested in a low desert valley between Palm Desert and San Diego, is an isolated haven of desert beauty, especially during a springtime superbloom. Ocotillo and desert flowers blanket the sandy floor with unexpected pops of color, making it a joy to paint.

A finch rests on a blooming ocotillo branch

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #PerfectLighting with the Alt theme #Finches. Perfect lighting is subjective, methinks, but the lighting for this shot worked well, bright enough for detail but kinda of moody against the bright #ocotillo blooms.

Octoillo branches are spindly and spiny, making a good perch for birds. On the left a phainopepla perches, while top right, a little hummingbird hangs out. They stayed that way a good amount of time.

#Phainopepla and Anna's #hummingbird in the Galiuro Mountains, hanging out on the same #ocotillo.

A photograph of a large ocotillo plant just outside of Borrego Springs, San Diego County. The ocotillo's bright red blooms shine in sunlight against the shadow of approaching clouds.

Stitched panorama of an impressive geologic feature that could be mistaken for a meteor impact crater. This feature appears in the hazy distance under a clear sky and above rolling desert terrain. An ocotillo appears at the left of the image, with scrubby desert plants scattered across the ground generally.

This painting captures a scene from the Mojave Desert, in Joshua Tree National Park. https://www.erinhanson.com/portfolio/ocotillo-sunset

The orange colored bloom of the beautiful Ocotillo plant. The stem has sharp thorns. The desert is in the background with a light, blue sky.

Ocotillo! (Little Torch)
I took this pic in Arizona. The plants was in full bloom on the hills & mountainsides of the desert. A semi- succulent, it can live 60-100 years or longer. “How lovely the silence of growing things.”

Male House Finch on an Ocotillo branch. During breeding season, males are especially colorful. Their diet affects their color. Bright red is typical but this year, many males were also yellow or orange.
