This is my third post of the series regarding Trabuco Canyon.  Trabuco Canyon is a tremendous wildlife area that offers an opportuity for fun and entertainment, and great photo opportunites.

The road is canopied with foliage and trees in Trabuco Canyon and is incredibly green as a result of all of the rain.

I love the gazanias. The San Diego Zoo just renovated its front entrance and planted lots of different ones everywhere. It's quite beautiful.
