Returning to Shone Farm. There is a die-off occurring in the manzanitas on the northern slopes. Quercus agrifolia and Pseudotsuga mensezii are providing too much shade cover and new bud development is not stimulated. Wooded debris in creek are full of fungi, the head-cut does not appear larger, but downstream blockages look lighter than first visit. Debris might have washed away in the storm. Sequoia sempervirens saplings noted near creek banks - flags near them imply they were planted for a reason, possibly a student project or for erosion control. Arbutus mensezii twisted in long thin spindly shapes to find patches of sun that fall through canopy. Umbellularia callifornia showing blight spots near vineyard property.
