Sept. 9 – CA Gnatcatchers

with No Comments

California Gnatcatchers are small songbirds whose range extends from Baja Mexico to Ventura County. These birds only use specific habitats, like Coastal Sage Scrub, which is often prime land for development. Because of this loss of habitat and the potential to lose the species, the federal government added this bird to the federal endangered species list. This listing offers it added protections when developments do occur. The Puente-Chino Hills Wildlife Corridor includes hillsides with scrub habitat and this little bird.

Climate Bond Action Needed

Without it, our success will be hindered for years to come. This is an easy Earth Day action! Repost this message now!

Fragrant White Sage

with No Comments

Fun Fact – There are several types of sage in the Puente-Chino Hills Wildlife Corridor. White sage is particularly fragrant. If you gently rub your fingers on the leaves you can smell it–no need to break it off! Native Nations used white sage in ceremonies, for medicinal purposes, in food, and to help repel insects.
