With Don Fraser; a visit to see what was around (answer: no mucho). The only nectar sources were some goldenrods and Rosy Camphorweeds. the last few blooming Nuttall's Thistles, and Tarflower, which is blooming much more than a week ago. Insects were scarce. Despite the rains of a week ago, there remains virtually no standing water. We first iNatted the helipad, which was under-whelming, so we drove the entirety of 3 Bridges Road, much of Indigo Drive, and some of Gopher Road looking for nectar sources. The weather at the start (0955) was sunny and 86 degrees ("feels like" 96) with a light breeze. By the time we left, at 1410, the temperature was 92 "feels like" 101).
This weed is circular and green. It was about and inch tall and an inch in diameter. The weed grew in groups and there were many. They blended in with the grass and had multiple indents in the circular shape.
The weed shot out of the ground in a vine that it bright green, the leaves were pointe at the edges. The vine was very long ad sprouting form it were yellow flowers.
