A River #Otter gives me the side eye as a raft makes their way across the waters in Contra Costa County.
On Veterans Day, a beacon is lit atop Mount Diablo to commemorate the day. This year, the Northern Lights painted the skies a light pink along side the mountain.
The first supermoon of the year made an appearance as the Harvest moon.
The season is upon us. A tarantula makes its way across a trail in the Walnut Creek Open Space.
A Great Horned Owl waits in a tree, looking for its next meal to scurry across the leaf covered hillside in Walnut Creek. The owl’s hearing and eye sight is amazing as it silently zeroes in on a mouse.
A #dolphin was swimming back and forth along the surfline in Half Moon Bay in front of the Miramar Restaurant. It was such a gorgeous day Saturday.
A squirrel was playing peek-a-boo with a Great Horned Owl in Walnut Creek, Ca. The squirrel was winning today’s battle.
I spy with my little eye, something brown… A Great Horned Owl yawning and assessing out whether I am a threat or just a silly photographer in the dry grass.

A gorgeously foggy morning in Avila as “polar bears” took to the oceans waters. The pier at the beach appears to be peering through a blanket of cotton haze as a fisherman awaits a nibble. Is that a fog bow?
A Red-tailed Hawk circles the nest and then returns with a captured rat to show the eyas.
They are such a majestic bird to watch and wonder. At sunset, a Bald Eagle at the Lafayette Reservoir lands on a tree top before headed home.
Incredible sequence as a Bald #Eagle launches for take off at the Lafayette Reservoir. Check out the 4th frame and see how flat the tail feathers work to stabilize the flight.
An American White Pelican does a fly by at the Lafayette Reservoir as a recent storm clears. The flock of pelicans were circling the waters taking advantage of the strong winds.
Let it snow, let it snow! Snow atop the Mt. Diablo range! 📍Walnut Creek, Ca. @SFBART #snow #mtdiablo #walnutcreek
Spotted a Bald Eagle on my hike last night. Spent about 10 minutes photographing it and decided to move 2 feet to the left and discovered its partner hanging out just below the tree line peeking out. It’s so amusing that the optical illusion makes the lower Bald Eagle look fake.
Being “MacGyver” is how this couple stays dry on the streets of Walnut Creek during the recent #rains.
