Nesting season in the Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve means a survey is required before doing any work. Found this nest in the grass under a pickleweed bush and had to relocate our planned work. Since work is restoring habitat for the Belding's Savanna Sparrow, we were happy to do so.
Moving camps and space/weight an issue (backpack, xc ski, kayak, bike), instant coffee.
Base camp with day trips or car camp.
