Coyote Crosses A Ranch, Point Reyes National Seashore
This coyote has a swollen area under his left eye. This is the same coyote I’ve posted photos of before. He had an injury to his right foreleg which caused him to limp last winter, but that seems to have … Continue reading
Another Great Horned Owl Waits For Darkness
It’s mid-day and this adult great horned owl has hours to wait until darkness. In summer their hunting hours are much shorter than in winter, although they are busiest just after sunset and just before sunrise regardless of season. They … Continue reading
Yearling Elk Releases Some Steam
It’s not only the calves that need to run to release some pent up energy. This yearling needs to do it as well. He has that crazy look in his eyes. I can remember having that same need to run … Continue reading
Young Bull Elk Poses
This young bull poses beautifully in the afternoon light. I like to think he was practicing for when he will be a regal 7-pointer.

A Tule Elk Calf Stands in Tall Grass
This tule elk calf is big enough to run with the adults so it no longer needs to hide for periods of time. It was the only calf with a group of 25 adults and yearlings. Most of the cows … Continue reading
A Coyote Survives with Injury
I’ve seen this coyote a number of times. He’s easy to identify because he has a slight limp due to some injury to his right foreleg. I first saw him around Pierce Point Ranch months ago. Later I saw him … Continue reading
California Quail in Strong Backlight
I liked the lichen-covered post this guy hopped up on at the Pierce Point Ranch parking lot. I didn’t like the fact that I had to shoot into the sun though. That made for some tough backlighting. I don’t know … Continue reading
