  1. Most California Thrashers (Toxostoma redivivum) spend their entire lives in chaparral, a fire-adapted habitat. Their populations peak about 20 years after a burn.

  5. Hiking at White Point Nature Preserve last weekend. It's a former World War II coastal defense bunker and cold war missile site, decommissioned in the 1970s, and eventually turned into a nature preserve. In the third photo you can just see the remnants of the two bunkers near the top of the hill. The last one is the visitor center in the middle of a garden showcasing native California plants.

  10. Chamise (Adenostoma fasciculatum) is one of the most widespread shrubs in California’s chaparral. Deep taproots tap hidden water, thick, waxy leaves hold onto it, and a burl-like base helps it resprout after fire.

  11. If you're nervously watching the #LA fires, and wondering what kind of fireproofing you could do personally, there's actually a decent amount you can do via landscaping. See native #chaparral plants are cool in that they either don't catch fire easily or they go up in flames quickly. If you plant the first set, and follow other fire rules, you might save your house. Greg #Rubin has the research, mostly SoCal based. Last I heard, he hasn't lost a house yet.

  16. Vernal equinox isn’t for another five days but fuck it, it’s blooming time~

    My seasonal screen name (on other social media platforms) this spring is 盛開的雪豹🪻, which is Traditional Chinese for “Snow Leopard in Bloom” or “Blooming Snow Leopard”. Chinese is pretty cool :3

    A common wildflower where I live is lupine, which grows in patches alongside California poppies (Eschscholzia californica) and Coast fiddleneck (Amsinckia intermedia). I don’t know which subspecies of lupine are in the images I shared but they’re quite pretty.

  19. Views from the trail, which runs along the hillside just above the transition from riparian zone to chaparral. In the third photo you can see the tops of the trees running along the stream.

    The orange strangly vines growing all over some of the scrub in the second photo are apparently a parasitic plant called a dodder. According to Wikipedia they're known as "strangle tare, scaldweed, beggarweed, lady's laces, fireweed, wizard's net, devil's guts, devil's hair, devil's ringlet, goldthread, hailweed, hairweed, hellbine, love vine, pull-down, strangleweed, angel hair, and witch's hair."

  24. Chamise (Adenostoma fasciculatum - rose family) is a large, tough shrub that is one of the characteristic chaparral plants. They've just started blooming up here. Lakeview Mountains, today.

  29. Here's a nice example of a trunk of an ancient wild buckwheat shrub (Eriogonum fasciculatum), with a sprinkling of goldspeck lichen (Candelariella).
