Winter annuals from 2012(?). Beautiful blooms like this seem to be an increasingly rare sight!
Stay tuned. The Portal Project blog is coming back on line with new material and new contributors! We’ve been busy at the site with some cool results and a new grant to fund new directions. We’ll start posting about it all soon. For those of you who follow this blog, previous contributors Sarah Supp and Glenda Yenni have both graduated, though they are both still working on Portal projects and come back to the site from time to time! Erica Christensen has taken their place and plans to post regularly about what’s going on at the site. In the meantime, let this beautiful picture by Glenda in the Portal archives suffice until we finish writing up some new material for the blog!

The poppies were exceptional that year and the result of strong winter rains, but only a little over an inch of rain was measured this winter (4.5 miles SE of the Portal Project).

Sadly, I missed the poppies that year. Every time I’ve gone down since, the students regale me with the stories of how beautiful it was that year!
