What a great hike at Coyote Hills Regional Park!

Such fun today, thank you very much everyone!  Here are a couple quick links, and I will post more, and photos, later.  Send me your photos if you would like them included!

Poison hemlock, aka "The Bane of Socrates" - http://poisonousplants.ansci.cornell.edu/conium.html.

On a tastier note, (but still invasive) - wild fennel - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fennel

The fields while driving into the preserve were covered with black mustard - https://www.calflora.org/cgi-bin/species_query.cgi?where-calrecnum=1144 

We saw a hunting marsh hawk (aka butterbutt) https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Northern_Harrier/id

And plenty of turkey vultures!  https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Turkey_Vulture/id

Next hike:  Uvas Creek Canyon!

More soon, thanks for a great day!
