ベイエリアのトレイル Devil’s Slide Trail and Le Conte Trail Montara – Bay Area Trail

Nature observation, Birds

When I walk trails in the San Francisco Bay Area, I often include the trail name in the title of my observation posts. That might attract people expecting information about the trail itself—but there usually isn’t much of that. Sorry!

I’ll try to include photos of the trail itself from now on, when I remember.

A plant I saw in large numbers near the north entrance of Devil’s Slide Trail. The plant stood about two meters tall and was covered in small pink and purple flowers—quite striking. It’s a naturalized species called Pride of Madeira, originally from Madeira Island, Portugal, introduced for ornamental purposes and now wild.
The usual White-crowned Sparrow.
I saw a lot of rabbits this time. The California Brush Rabbit is a small rabbit species found along the West Coast.
From here, I continued on the Le Conte Trail in Montara. It seems to be a lightly trafficked trail mostly used by local residents. California Scrub-Jay.
Nuttall’s Woodpecker, which also appeared in my previous post.
There were quite a few rabbits—many emerged from the roadside brush.
A juvenile California Brush Rabbit.
Wrentit, a species that tends to move alone through thick undergrowth, but is surprisingly easy to spot.
