  • Upper Codornices Creek Was Used for Dairying and Haying
    A Walk in the Upper Codornices Watershed by Susan Schwartz, President, Friends of Five Creeks Codornices is one of many small creeks flowing from the geologically young Berkeley Hills to San Francisco Bay. It is unusual only because is the only creek from Oakland into South Richmond to retain a substantially continuous channel from hills to Bay. This may be because the creek became the Berkeley-Albany border, making it bureaucratically difficult to bury most of it in pipes. Probably because of this relatively continuous open channel, Codornices the only creek from Oakland to North Richmond with a population of steelhead – ocean-going rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss; the two are the same species). Since steelhead are listed as threatened, great effort has gone into improving and expanding their habitat, particularly in the lower reaches, where the creek forms the border between Berkeley and Albany. The hills where Codornices rises are a geologic jumble. Some of the oldest rocks date from the age of dinosaurs. Formed far away, they were scraped from the Pacific Plate as it was forced beneath North America. One example is Pinnacle Rock in Remillard Park; its lavas erupted in distant tropical seas some 160 million years ago. By contrast, Indian, Mortar, and Grotto Rocks are bits of a much younger volcano that erupted somewhere near today’s Hollister much more recently, perhaps 13 million years ago. They were dragged north on the more recent sideways motion of clashing plates. Sediments washed from the Sierras and deposited at different times also have been mixed and pushed into odd angles.

  • The Bay Shore Then and Now
    Restoring and Protecting Nature in the Eastshore State Park Susan Schwartz, Friends of Five Creeks As the glaciers of the last Ice Age melted, some 8000 years ago, the rising Pacific gradually drowned the huge river that had poured through the Golden Gate toward the Farallons. With Native Americans there to watch, valleys became San Francisco, San Pablo, and Suisun Bays. Peaks of a range of hills older and west of today’s East Bay hills were left as islands – Albany Hill, Fleming Point, Pt. Isabel, Brooks Island, the Potrero Hills. From the still-rising hills of today, creeks carried soil and eroding rock to changing shoreline, while currents swept sand and mud from the Sacramento River along the shore. Together, these formed today’s “flatlands” as wet, grassy meadows. Opposite the Golden Gate, strong tidal currents swept away mud, leaving the heavier sand particles. A beach and low dunes thus formed a golden crescent along the shore from about today’s Virginia Street to the sandstone bluff at Fleming Point. North of that, a shallow inlet lapped the west edge of Albany Hill. Behind the sandy beach, Schoolhouse, Codornices, and Marin Creeks flowed into a tidal slough that wandered north behind the hill at Fleming Point. Creek mouths north and south of these – Strawberry and Cerrito Creeks – reached the Bay. At those two creek outlets, debris from thousands of years of Indian habitation formed large shell mounds. The map at right shows the original shoreline (dark and shaded) and the shoreline today. Settlers dredged the sand, bulldozed the shellmounds, and filled the Bay westward with garbage, construction debris, and mud from dredging projects.

  • Wild Edibles You Are Likely to See in Local Restoration Areas
    Edible and Useful Weeds and Wildland Plants of the East Bay This informal guide is meant to encourage you to get to know and enjoy the nature around you. The list isn’t complete and some details may be wrong. Additions and corrections welcome at [email protected]! Information and pictures of the plants can be found on the web. A good place to start is www.calflora.org, an excellent database of California plants with links to photos. If you are going to gather, please obey laws and use judgment. Stick to common, abundant plants. Unless your target is a weed, take only a small fraction of seeds or leaves. Be sure you can identify the target plant and similar toxic ones (list at http://www.plantsciences.ucdavis.edu/ce/king/PoisPlant/Tox-SCI.htm). Relishes from weeds: Young seed pods of wild radish and flowers of wild mustard are hard to beat for a tiny firecracker of taste. Try them on a spring walk! Fennel seeds give a hint of anise, and of course kids love yellow flowered “sour grass” – Bermuda buttercup (Oxalis pes-caprae). Invasive wild onion greens or bulb work in salads. Spices: Fennel pollen makes a great spice (check prices and recipes on the web). Wild celery is simply the domestic plant gone wilder and stronger. Bay leaves are great in cooking – stronger than “bought.” Salty zest for salads: Crunchy native pickleweed (Salicornia spp.) was a favorite with settlers and is showing up in some fancy restaurants. Invasive Salsola, a feathery-looking relative of tumbleweed, gives almost the same effect.
