Observation Narrative	original plot ID: AA0699, Vegetation type confidence: Nassella patchy. Standing dead Avena counted. Seedlings seem to be Bromus hordeaceus. Avena or vicia may become dominant later in the year. Oaks on S edge. Erodium patch. Probably best as 5010 since grass species varies throughout year (Avena seems older than bromus); Surveyed stand has an inclusion of Erodium;
