@CWilbur@sfba.social Having lived in SD for thirty years, I can safely attest that the chaparral has its own special beauty. Many a Sunday afternoon was spent driving through North and East County enjoying the giant rock terrain!
And we have a giant half mile stand of Eucalyptus trees along the 101 highway that skirts the bay here, so it’s like home!! LOL!

@Coreyartus@mindly.social Yup! Eucalyptus from stem to stern in this state. haha And yes, the chaparral is beautiful as it changes through the seasons Deerweed and Mustard yellows to Buckwheat whites through late year Goldenbush. My thing is butterflies, and the wild areas support dozens of different species. And they’re here all year. Still, I love getting up to Oakland multiple times a year to see the forests and their flyers.
