Part 2, Turtle Bay and Sundial Bridge
This is a great place to visit if you're in the Redding, CA area. The bridge is beautiful, a great place for a hike, picnic, or to enjoy the wonderful Botanical Gardens The Sundial Bridge from below. It's hard to get a photo without a lot of people on the bridge, I was lucky it was a slow day, at least when I first got there. The Botanical Gardens was a mixture of flowers that were past their prime, in full bloom and not yet blooming, just what you expect. This on had the added benefit of a butterfly, I tried to find the name but couldn't match it up with any in my books. The Dogwoods were out !! Okay look closely, like me you might think the pillars on first bridge are longer than they really are. Reflections in the Sacramento River can fool you. Go, See, Enjoy, Stay Safe and Photograph, Dave
