Natural History Wanderings

Marin CNPS 

• Sightings of spring in Cascade Canyon in Fairfax. Indian Warrior, Mission bells, False Solomon’s Seal. Plus, milkmaids, Hounds tongue, and shooting stars.
• Scoliopus bigelovii. Phoenix Lake area.
• A few early spring flowers seen along Sky Trail in Point Reyes this last weekend: (1) pink flowering currant (Ribes sanguineum var. glutinosum), (2) salmon berry (Rubus spectabilis), (3) evergreen huckleberry (Vaccinium ovatum). The Ribes were in peak bloom along Sky Trail between Mt. Wittenberg and the Coastal Trail, providing beautiful displays of pink, and pleasant aromas.
