Have you ever seen snow in San Elijo? Come with us to watch the coyote brush shedding fluffy white seeds that sail and fall like snowflakes in a winter wonderland. Glance at a frosty branch and you might spot tiny pink-tinged “pine cones.” These are bud galls, the handiwork of tiny midges that lay their eggs on developing buds. The Toyon celebrates winter with vibrant red “holly” berries, while the Thrasher belts out “Jingle, Jingle, Jingle Bells.” Happy Holidays from San Elijo Ecological Reserve! Event is weather permitting, and wildlife is unpredictable; there is no guarantee of what you will see. Adults; Accessible Trail; Registration Required (meet-up location will be emailed to registered participants) Visit: Nature Collective Wildlife Tour Nature Collective on Instagram and Facebook
