Looks like a good healthy burn. Thanks TNC!

Or it can greatly increase the native population and decrease the population of exotic invaders.
Good to see this understory burn take place while the fuel load was light.
The heavy stem count is bothersome, though. Burning should have started here 10-20 years ago. A good thinning should take place ASAP, in combination with future prescribed burns.

Prescribe burning is neccessary, however, it can greatly increase the non-native population and decrease the establishment of the native plants.
