Name that shrub.

Janet found two small shrubs on her trail patrol route in the San Dieguito River Park and she is hoping that someone can ID them for her.  Here is a photo of one of them.  Yes, it is very difficult to make out because it is growing in a tangle with some brittlebush, sagebrush, buckwheat, etc.  That's how things grow in shrublands.

Here is a closer view of one of the branches.  This one is better but the high, direct sunlight still makes for a harshly lit photo.  I hope someone will recognize the plant from these photos because I don't think we're expecting a high overcast anytime soon.  (Click the picture to see larger image.)

So if anyone can ID this plant, please let us know.  Thank you.

[Note: Janet has ID'd this as Cneoridium dumosum, or Bush Rue.  2-6-09]
