Table Mountain blooms early this year.

Yesterday I made my first trek on Table Mountain this spring. It's fairly early an I wasn't expecting to find much.

I was pleasantly surprised though. You won't find scenes like this near the road, but a little walking will pay off.

Looking at my photos from previous years, I generally see lots of Poppies in April with very few in mid March.

It seems we rarely get heavy lupins until April.  Although there aren't huge quantities yet there are definitly some beautiful patches of poppies and lupins that are worth the walk.

I've never been good a predicting how it will progress from here, so I'll just keep going back until it's over. I'll keep you posted.
