Children of the Chaparral

 

Intrepid explorers of the Oak Foothill Woodland.

 

Rattlesnake hunting is reserved for the cautiously brave.

 

Datura wrightii, aka Sacred Datura, Devil's Weed, Jimson Weed.  This plant is dangerously toxic.

 

No rattlesnakes, but we did get to look at this little guy.

 

Western Fence Lizard (Sceloporus occidentalis)

A relaxing lunch...

"Clemson" the feral kid we found in the woods.  Once we fed him, he wouldn't leave.
