You remind me of my Botany lab professors, you rock!, no I mean you plant! Keep up the great lectures, I love this evolutionary botany content in your channel!
Thats so odd that the Ironwood tree would not have made it to the mainland somehow. What is in that habitat that isn't anywhere else? Jack was like "That skinny leg dude lookin at us too hard, boss. I better swim over and eat him" :-)
You bring up a very interesting point, Lynn. The Ironwoods we're historically widespread around the west coast of the mainland and found in the fossil record all the way to even Utah. However, over time and climatic changes, the distribution of Lyonothamnus now only occur on the Channel Islands. This is an example of “Relictual Endemism”, or RELICTS of the past that now only occur in that region as an endemic species. I go into more detail in about this in a video I did for Tree of Life Nursery, entitled “ Plants of the Channel Islands” around the 9:21 min mark. ua-cam.com/video/Nj4CA3tr-1k/v-deo.html
Is that an Intex Excursion Pro k1? If so, how do you like it? Durable on landing on those pebbles? I'd have to inflate on a 16 foot cuddy cabin, so might be too big.

Awsome, love your videos. Fairwinds.
Thank you, Seawolf🙏! Your support means the world. I'll continue to make them. Cheers
Awsome video. I think I have a meeting favorite tree! Thanks for the tour.
Thank you, Eddie! Which tree? The Cherry or the Ironwood? Both are incredible.

@@svcalifornica Nice! Thank You!
Loved the episode, beautiful spot, looks like a very fragile eco sytem, oops i think Jack decided to go diving on your stern anchor 😁😁🐶👍⛵⛵
Thanks for watching! Haha he doesn’t need a weight belt, the bulldog in him makes him sink like a rock.
@@svcalifornica know what you mean, we have a french bulldog x, she swims like a brick😁👍
Can you explore seashells next time?
