UCSB’s Reserves are part of the 41-site University of California Natural Reserve System, one of the largest and most unique networks of protected lands in the world, supporting the university mission of research, university-level education and public service. UCSB operates 7 of these Reserves in unique ecosystems ranging from coastal (Coal Oil Point Reserve, Carpinteria Salt Marsh Reserve, Santa Cruz Island Reserve and K.S.N. Rancho Marino Reserve) to inland valleys (Sedgwick Reserve) to Great Basin (Sierra Nevada Aquatic Research Laboratory; SNARL) and montane forest (Valentine Reserve). Each week will provide a brief introduction to the Reserve site by the Reserve Director, followed by an engaging presentation by one of the Reserve’s expert scientists focused on the highlights of their research. Registration is free! Join us every Thursday evening, from October 8 – November 19, from 7 – 8 PM, in this virtual tour of research highlights from across the state.

Capradio reports on how “Some Controversial Monuments Come Down Overnight, But Others — Like A Mountain Peak — Take Years To Rename”
On July 9, 2020, the U.S. Board on Geographic Names approved renaming Jeff Davis Peak “Sentinel Rock,” with the larger geographic landmark named “Da-ek Dow Go-et Mountain.” The approval was the final hurdle to changing the name.

Bay Nature reports
Close to a million acres have burned in the greater Bay Area in the last six weeks, including hundreds of thousands of acres in public parks and protected open spaces. As the Glass Fire continues to burn through several state and regional parks, as well as residential and agricultural areas in Napa and Sonoma counties, land managers and stewards have begun to assess the ecological effects of the massive lightning-ignited SCU, CZU, and LNU Lightning Complex fires.

from Golden Gate Audubon
Thanks to you and your phone calls, emails, and letters, Governor Newsom signed AB 1788 on September 29th! We are thrilled with this win for children, pets, and wildlife, and very grateful to Assemblymember Richard Bloom for his years of persistence in tackling this issue!
AB 1788 will prevent more poisonings by strongly curbing the use of second generation anticoagulant rodenticides (with some exceptions) until the California Department of Pesticide Regulation finishes its reevaluation, a process put in motion by a lawsuit filed by RATS in 2018 under the California Environmental Quality Act. You can send the Governor a note of thanks for signing this important bill here.

Yosemite National Park is announcing modifications to operations to implement the latest guidance from the White House, Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC), and local and state public health authorities, as the park continues to increase public access and services. The NPS is working servicewide with federal, state, and local public health authorities to closely monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and using a phased approach to increase access on a park-by-park basis.
Yosemite National Park will be modifying park operations beginning on November 1, 2020, ending the day use reservation system that has been in place since the park reopened in June.

In response to these efforts, nearly 25,000 Audubon advocates submitted comments to the USFWS urging them to continue protecting the Western Yellow-billed Cuckoo.
We are happy to report that the USFWS announced their finding on the petition to remove the distinct population segment (DPS) of the Western Yellow-billed Cuckoo from the List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife. The USFWS notice states, “After a thorough review of the best available scientific and commercial information, we find that it is not warranted at this time to delist the DPS of the western yellow-billed cuckoo.”

The Western Foundation of Vertebrate Zoology has interesting article on the Go-away Birds
The Go-away birds, Corythaixoides, are a genus in the turaco family (Musophagidae). Unlike many of the brighter forest-dwelling turacos, these are birds of African open country and have drab grey and white plumage.
These birds get their common name from their typical calls. These include a series of grumpy yelps, and the classic nasal “go-waaay” call.
Listen to the birds and read the article at The Go-away birds

from Yosemite National Park
On September 28, 1984 the California Wilderness act was passed, designating over 3 million acres of wilderness within the state of California, including the Yosemite Wilderness, for protection from commercial gain, development, and overuse. The initial Wilderness Act of 1964 allowed for these future additions to the National Wilderness Preservation System. Today, nearly 95% (704,624 acres) of Yosemite is designated wilderness for visitors around the world to enjoy a piece of solitude and adventure.

Check out this must-read article in the Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s Living Bird by Hugh Powell from last year.
