Canyon hiking trail. The headwaters of the Sausal Watershed are in the Oakland hills and the outlet is near the Fruitvale Bridge which means it travels through a mostly urban watershed. Over the years there have been many attempts to control the creek. Now there are efforts underway to daylight the creek, restore the surrounding ecosystems and remove obstacles to the rainbow trout population. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1605847860388-H1TZK6VJ37XAQ4CLKVBV/DSC1466.jpg Photos & Stories View of Donal Avenue from El Cerrito Hillside Natural Area https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1480133820131-ZCU2AAKVYKFOZ2NHP9YP/image-asset.jpeg Photos & Stories Pipevine Swallowtail caterpillar is crawling on a California Pipevine plant, its sole food source. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1480133663309-ZU2KJIO40SURRXF6A69L/_DSC7665.jpg Photos & Stories Western Fence Lizard on Matt Davis Trail, Mount Tamalpais https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1479151890437-VXL2OQZIY3PNI5ZSH4WD/Greenhouse+for+Propagating+Native+Plant+Species+at+Regional+Parks+Botanic+Garden Photos & Stories The Greenhouse where volunteers propagate native plant species at the Regional Parks Botanic Garden in Tilden Park. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1480125529922-PE4U3NUR3SQ68XVOXJEC/image-asset.jpeg Photos & Stories Anna’s Hummingbird visiting the Alameda County Master Gardener Quarry Lake Demonstration Garden in Fremont https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1480135578916-BWN7PGAY2UP0JZUUVDGD/image-asset.jpeg Photos & Stories Tufted Poppies bloom in the partial shade of a large oak tree in the University of California Botanical Garden in Berkeley https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1480125409110-QYINIKXQ9U3I7XKCNNKM/DSC_2946.jpg Photos & Stories View of Sausal Creek, Oakland https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1480135665225-PE5F26K0NX9F4Q6URYS3/DSC_2792.jpg Photos & Stories Friends of Sausal Creek Native Plant Nursery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1480137307941-QOW097VXEINFTAU9J0ZY/image-asset.jpeg Photos & Stories Western Columbine, Aquilegia formosa https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1479188341918-HJYPJZOUFRJCGZUQIUGO/image-asset.jpeg Photos & Stories White Fairy Lantern, Calochortus albus https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1480125188099-213BMB9B0A4ANFZ92NRW/image-asset.jpeg Photos & Stories Sky Lupine, Lupinus nanus https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1480192653594-7TEQ9J38Z3JPQTRE219E/image-asset.jpeg Photos & Stories A deer wanders out of the east bay hills woodland out into the street https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1480192477087-154APG1XLK9UNZX91VZU/image-asset.jpeg Photos & Stories Coast Live Oak at John Hinkle Park, Berkeley https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1479189887046-S6X0KEN0HN3FNI053I11/image-asset.jpeg Photos & Stories Keeler Path https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1480135699164-VJ04ANWOBG1NY62RXFR9/DSC_6842.jpg Photos & Stories Mortars at Indian Rock Park https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1480662525113-XHLL0RWYIZHFSDQY4396/Egret.jpg Photos & Stories Egret at Jewel Lake https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1480195111767-WLWUK0OKCA5BXHLTHGY2/image-asset.jpeg Photos & Stories Larner Seeds Demonstration Garden https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1480135612468-CUWEM4CWHQ3RPAVR1NKJ/image-asset.jpeg Photos & Stories Milkweed seeds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1480135347723-H72OV0NCWPR6PHZOY9A9/image-asset.jpeg Photos & Stories Overwintering Ladybugs, Oakland Hills https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1479274348998-RE9COSK010HK35DAHZ0F/DSC4488.jpg Photos & Stories Wrentit, just captured in the mist net https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1479274678029-I07LU1M6HJKJ03TNBJRW/DSC4539-2.jpg Photos & Stories The walkway surrounded by California Wild Lilac and Coast Live Oaks leads to the field station and visitor center. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/53fa5be6e4b04b212863798f/1479274360978-HVPOQTUVW09Y0PW1N0EJ/_DSC2708-Edit-2.jpg Photos & Stories A biology intern inspects bands on a Wrentit.
