'Tis the season for California Fetid Adderstongue flowers! Took a little iNaturalist staff field trip to say hi to these stinky yet beautiful blooms. #fetidadderstongue #inaturalist

January is the time for the blooming or Fetid Adder’s Tongue. These flowers are pollinated by gnats, which are attracted to the odor of the flower, which smells like rotting meat. #fetidadderstongue #wildflowers #billwilliamstrail #mttamalpais #mttam #mttamwatershed #naturephotography

I found this lovely Fetid Adder’s Tongue (Scoliopus bigelovii) in the redwood forest today. These are small, inconspicuous, but strikingly beautiful flowers in the lily family. This is why it’s worth slowing down and paying attention to the small things✨
