Now is a great time to be at Point Reyes. There are lots of elk calves to see and some deer fawns as well. I mentioned in an earlier post that I think the heavy winter rains helped increase elk births. I think the same can be said for deer and most other critters.
One thing that I am always amazed at is how fast people drive in the Seashore as they rush to get to some particular location to start enjoying nature. If they would slow down and scan the fields they would see all kinds of nature’s creations, such as coyotes, bobcats, badgers, elk, deer etc. Plus, less wildlife would be killed by vehicles. As Glenn Frey used to sing, “take it easy.”
