The stand is a diverse mix of mostly native herbs and Vulpia microstachys. The stand grades into adjacent blue oak woodland. The stand would presumably look very different in the spring time.

Observation Narrative
I had difficulty estimating species covers of dried up species in relatively large and heterogeneous stand. Also, I imagine species cover was probably different earlier in the spring.
