Two pages from my Stebbins Cold Canyon sketchbook, January 2017.
More pages from my January 2017 sketchbook at Stebbins Cold Canyon, seventeen months after the Wragg Fire.
Sketchbook from my November visit to Stebbins Cold Canyon, watching the reserve as it responds to the 2015 Wragg Fire. More at Wildfire to Wildflowers.
Watching the changes in the view at the trailhead to Stebbins Cold Canyon Reserve. Top painting was September 29, 2016, one year after the fire. Middle painting was March 23, 2016 and bottom painting was September 11, 2015.
I’m drawing Cold Canyon as it recovers from the fire, follow along at Wildfire to Wildflowers.
From September in Stebbins Cold Canyon Reserve (just over one year after the Wragg Fire): chamise (Adenostoma fasciculatum) resprouting and California buckeye (Aesculus californica) fruits.
Two different types of gall on a blue oak (Quercus douglasii) leaf at Stebbins Cold Canyon in September: urchin galls housing eggs/larvae of the urchin gall wasp (Antron quercusechinus) and crystalline galls (Andricus crystallinus). Gall morphology is species-specific, and wasps are often also specialized to a single oak species. More at Wildfire to Wildflowers.
