For this week’s Wild Wednesday in the Western Algarve I offer wild yellow lupins. These can usually be seen between March and August.

These photographs were taken in the Sudoeste Alentejano e Costa Vicentina Nature Park (Alentejo’s South West and Vicentina coast).

So very pretty!

The yellow lupins are really pretty. We have wild ones here in Bavaria too, but only blue ones. They grow at the roadsides at the same time as the yellow broom flowers.

That’s a good sighting. I need to get back in the hills but it’s been a bit hot lately.

No, but I can often see them inland from us, Carole, if it’s the right time of year 😁🩵
