  • Protecting habitat important for over 30 native bird species, including California Quail, Red-tailed Hawk, Western Burrowing Owl, Swainson’s Hawk, and Great Blue Heron

  • Conserving Oak Woodland and Oak Savannah composed of native blue oaks, valley oaks, live oaks, and foothill pines. And unique plants such as Hoover’s Calycadenia
