Yellow Monkeyflowers

Bright yellow, snapdragon-like flowers, these monkeyflowers appear to possess red spotted throats. Yellow monkeyflowers are commonly con-fused with similar flowers called butter-and-eggs. Blooming in a profusion of yellow, monkeyflowers often decorate springs or streambanks and can even be discovered around hot pools at Old Faithful Geyser area.
