I saw this guy while I was running in the early morning. He tried crossing the road to escape me but I saved him just in time from being run over.

The herbaceous plant was a perennial, with green, narrow leaves and a distinct flower head. It was coated with many small white flowers, and other plants had fluffy seed pods. It grew in the almost barren Coastal Sage Scrub.

The cactus was smaller, and wasn't in a large, mature thicket as seen in older stands. It's pads were newer and was along a ridge above weedy fields.
