Hello, welcome to my user page! Not much to say here other than I love Nature. My passion is to help others enjoy the natural communities near their own homes, be it chaparral, sage scrub, desert, forest, or the seashore. I work for the California Chaparral Institute.
I was pretty active on Wikipedia circa 2005. I've returned recently (2020). Not sure whether it is because of COVID or the need to help people better understand chaparral, California's most extensive ecosystem.
