BORREGO SPRINGS

March 13th

Again, being crazy, we went into the desert when it was 90 degrees.  It didn't seem too bad, we drank alot of water.   Borrego Springs is about a 2 hour drive southwest of Palm Springs.  The main reason we went was to see the beautiful  desert wildflowers in bloom.   Beautiful and unusual to see  flowers in the middle of the desert, only happens in  March and April










Unfortunately this caterpillar of the desert moth is quickly eating everything in sight. We saw them everywhere. They are huge.  The eagles fly down and eat the caterpillars but that hasn't happened yet.
