This cow elk was spotted feeding near the former Pierce Point Ranch which is located on the Tomales Point Peninsula. The Tomales Point Peninsula is where elk were re-introduced to the Seashore in about 1975. They are restricted by a fence that was erected just before the re-introduction. It runs across the peninsula from Tomales Bay to the ocean. The fence was installed to keep the elk out of the ranches on the Seashore.
When fall comes around and I think of Point Reyes, two things come to mind — the elk rut and the hawk migration. This red-tail let me get fairly close.
The annual Bald Eagle Festival in Haines, Alaska, was held last weekend. I meant to post this photo to recognize the festival a few days ago. However, problems in getting a new work station running threw me off track. A data drive failed almost immediately and, on top of that, the Windows 7 operating system was corrupted. Hopefully, it will be smooth sailing from now on. The new computer is much faster than the old one and the new 24″ EIZO monitor is a big improvement over the old monitor.
I spotted this coyote on my last visit to Point Reyes. Until I saw him, it had been quite a while since I last saw one there.
I spotted this bobcat on the way to Point Reyes earlier this month. It may be the same one I photographed in August.
After I posted the photo of the three eagles on September 11 I thought of another photo I took a couple of years ago. To me, it epitomizes what a bald eagle should look like as our Nation’s symbol. I’m thankful that I’m not posting a photo of a turkey at this point.
In memory of the tragic events that occurred nine years ago. May nothing like that ever happen again.
