This red-winged blackbird doesn’t have the yellow median coverts most red-wings have. The medians are black. It is called “bicolored” and exists in much of California. What I find interesting here is that he is exposing a beautiful yellow-orange color to the base of the lesser coverts.
Whenever I photograph a bobcat I try to determine its sex. I usually get a good enough look to be able to tell. This one is obviously a male. Even if I couldn’t determine its sex in the normal way, I’d assume this one to be a male based simply on the shoulder muscles. For some reason, the vast majority of bobcats I see are males.
Most people who photograph the Golden Gate Bridge turn around when they are done and leave the Marin Headlands. However, if you continue west, there are some other nice views. One is of Point Bonita. The Point Bonita Lighthouse is out near the end of the point.
Marin County, California, is not known for its waterfalls, but it has several. The best are on Cataract Creek in Cataract Canyon. This little series of falls is not even on Cataract Creek, but on one of its tributaries. In the canyon it’s easy to miss a good photo opportunity, even on the main stem.
With its Mediterranean climate, Marin’s waterfalls slow to a trickle in the summer. Go now. If you would like to purchase a print of this image click here.
I saw this bobcat about a month ago. He was sitting in a field enjoying the warmth of the afternoon sun. He looks like he may have been daydreaming. Do bobcats daydream? If you would like to purchase a print of this image click here.
I had driven by this scene a few times before I stopped to photograph it. The lower part of the tree is cut off by the hill. To order a print of this image click here.
This is a view of the upper falls in Cataract Canyon. Marin County is not known for its waterfalls, but it has several. My favorite place for waterfalls is Cataract Canyon. It has at least nine waterfalls and all of them are worth photographing.
