Shipley is a park within a park, set aside to be more wild and natural. I haven’t explored it all, but I liked what I saw.
It’s less manicured, more densely packed with greenery than Huntington Beach’s Central Park.
It greener, shadier and feels like you might be somewhere else than Southern California.
“Hot lips” salvia. They are so cute.
There were several egrets nesting in the trees. I caught a chick on camera! See for yourself: Great egret chick.
