We’re traveling from the Centre of Australia to the south, through arid lands.

I haven’t found their names, yet, as WiFi is intermittent, but wanted to share them for Cee’s FOTD.

For the last square of Becky’s month of blue squares.

Blue bounty — After his 1699 expedition William Dampier was among the first to cast aside the idea that WA’s low, scraggly looking vegetation was of little botanical worth and commented on the predominance of blue flowers.

For Cee’s FOTD, this specimen from Western Australia

With tens of thousands of wildflowers, there is every possibility that this isn’t a grevillea, so if you spot it as something else, please let me know.
