Lonely Blue Oak in Late Spring, Windy Hill
The lonely blue oak (Quercus douglasii) on the steep hill in Portola Valley Ranch, above Deer path Trail. Early spring: look close, there are a few leaves starting to bud at the tips of the branches. A week later in the year than the pevious image, but later in the season. 2/29/2016, 7:19 am. Windy Hill, turning green, in the background.
