Woodland/Shrubland

December 1-December 15, 2013

San Luis Obispo, California, United States.



Packing List: Comfortable shoes, sweatshirt, sweat pants, cap to block the sun, umbrella

Adventures: Even though it is winter, the temperature in this biome is much warmer. I would expect it to be rather hot during the summer, but now that its winter, it is mostly rainy. The plants here must love the rain because they all seem to be the types of plants to survive in droughts as well, such as sagebrush and yucca. There are fewer large animals here due to the small amounts of cover that the vegetation could provide. Most animals here are smaller and can hide in the grasses. Hopefully it stops rainning during my visit so that I may see some of the animals searching for food in the area.
