Large wildflower blooms are blanketing areas across the West’s normally arid open spaces after a wet winter that dumped heavy winter snow and rain. The intense weather caused deaths and damage to infrastructure while also helping provoke a flood of wildflowers. Visitors can head to a number of parks this year to snap photos of the wildflower blooms, with the help of a state website that shows where strong blooms are underway. Visit the link in bio to learn more about the blooms. 📸: @photogjay, Rob Schumacher USA TODAY Network; @GettyImages; @apnews
