May in the Wichita Mountains

I went for a walk today, around the area where I work. My workplace is located inside a Wildlife Reserve in the Wichita Mountains of Southwest Oklahoma.

Anyway, here are my photos:


Trail head near my work.



Wildflowers of the plains


More Wildflowers



Base of the Wichitas


An unusually wet winter and spring have allowed
greenery to grow on the rocks of the mountains.



Ancient smooth mountain stone and greenery.

Small lake near my work.


So serene... water in the dry plains...

Vibrant base of the mountains


More wildflowers


Impressive view of the Wichitas



Dual mountains, heading west on US 62.

Ancient stone of the Wichitas

Mountain, water, what a view!
Oklahoma's state wildflower. It's so lovely.
Prickly Pears, in bloom





Doesn't this look like the devil's foot?
