  1. Hi Jim, we are enjoying your photos. Glad to hear you are seeing more bears. The Marin weather has been crazy. Rained really hard yesterday with more due tomorrow.

    I went to see the owls today but it seems the parents have moved them to a high and safe spot. This last weekend the ranchers did a roundup and I’m sure that is what scared the owls.

    Just noticed two bits of dust, one pretty big, inside of my 80-400. Seems they were left inside when repaired. They move around and I guess that is why I did not see them before. Waiting for a RA label from Nikon.

    1. Hi Jeff,

      Glad to hear you’re enjoying the photos and the blog. Too bad about the dust in your lens. Hopefully, they’ll turn it around quickly.

      Jim

  2. Hi Jim, I finally got to spend some time looking at your website and now your blog area. I’m from
    SF, born and raised so I especially love the first picture of the Golden Gate and the coastal shots
    of the Lighthouse etc. Now I just saw some of the babies with Moms Love them also. The Wolf
    is beautiful too, I just couldn’t pick a favorite too many of them for me. I will look over all again
    soon, what a joy to see, must be why we met by chance at Lilly’s otherwise I wouldn’t have know about your work. It was a monthly lunch we do we all worked together years ago and just happened to go to Petaluma, usually we eat in Novato. Charlotte C.

  3. Hi. I read your blog regarding Johne’s disease in dairy cattle and Point Reyes elk. I looked into this and was told that once it was discovered the cattle carried the disease the park ceased testing the cattle and instead began testing the elk, some of which did carry the disease. Rather than take action against the cattle ranches attention was pointed at the elk, some of which were shot. Testing for this disease on the cattle never resumed again. If I had to guess, the reason would be bad publicity for the dairy producers. I would love to know if this sounds accurate to you or if you have another take on the matter. Thanks for your photos.

    1. Hi Skyler. I dons’t know for sure why the cattle were never tested again. They should be and a program should be initiated to get rid of it in the cattle and the elk. It would require testing and culling, but at some point the disease would be removed from the park.
