In the spirit of documenting the good and the bad, we are at the spring between time in the front yard #meadow: after the early bloomers (sea blush, yellow rattle and blue-eyed mary), but before the late spring bloom (self-heal, Oregon sunshine, and Clarkia). Bridging the gap is scattered blooms of white meadowfoam and white clover.
Incidentally, white clover seems to be opium for bumblebees -- they scour the faded blooms well into July in hopes of find some nectar.

The first spring flowers in the front yard #meadow ( #BeeLawn ) are all annuals.
The weed: hairy bittercress (Cardamine hirsuta) (no photo)
A another weed: spring whitlow-grass (Draba verna) -- kind of attractive.
A native annual: Small flowered blue-eyed mary (Collinsia parviflora) -- see my profile's header, thumb meets flower.
