1120-1200. Today I did some exploring to find some locations to take my Wildlife Sampling Methods class for some hands-on experience. My first stop was at the end of BLM Road 27-3-11.1. The very end of the road had been bermed off, decommissioned, and restored to promote return of the native habitat. At the end of the driveable portion of this road were a few pieces of cut wood and some rocks. These proved productive for salamanders, 2 Dunn's Salamanders and 1 Clouded Salamander (note square-tipped toes and long outer toe, vs short outer toe on Dunn's and other Plethodon). There was also a nice set of wildflowers nearby, which I willingly photographed. My favorite is this one of three different colors of Pacific Trillium. There was also a "weird" black plastic/tar/rubber looking fungus.
