Sara Bogard noticed this Great Blue Heron posing at the Point Arena Lighthouse. They are such beautiful birds!

One of my all-time favorite photos of a Great Blue Heron was taken by Paul Brewer. Paul photographed the heron as he/she was taking flight.

Another favorite photo is by Gordon Stitt - a Great Blue Heron and the Point Arena Lighthouse, along with crashing waves.

Thanks to Sara, Paul and Gordon for allowing me to share their photos with you here.

The Pacific Ocean has been crashing today, perhaps telling us of changes ahead. For now, the weather has been spectacular.

On July 13th,  Paul Thompson photographed the lovely sight of Saturn glowing a golden color next to the larger Jupiter, with the Milky Way splashed across the sky.

Paul wrote, “Two planets from our solar system can be seen, the brightest is Jupiter, and Saturn a bit to the left. We also see the distinctive shape of the Milky Way, actually our own galaxy viewed from the middle outward. This photo was taken down-coast from the North end of Sea Ranch, the yellow glow is from Santa Rosa street lights.”

The Mendonoma Coast is known for its lack of light pollution, giving photographed and star gazers a chance to see such a beautiful sight.

Thanks to Paul for allowing me to share his photo with you here.

Another foggy day on the immediate coast, pulling back in the mid-afternoon. Must be summer!

Paul Kozal is an amazing photographer. He enjoys photographing the night sky and recently took this photo of the Milky Way, shining bright over Black Point Beach on The Sea Ranch.

The flowers in the foreground are non-native ice plant. They are quite beautiful in bloom in the spring and summer.

Thanks to Paul for allowing me to share his beautiful photo with you here. To see much more of Paul's nature photography, here is the link to his website: http://www.paulkozal.com/

Sunny and warm today, with breezes to keep it from being too warm!

Spring doesn't know...

Tamir Scheinok was paddle boarding in the Gualala several weeks ago. He wrote, “I have only seen Bald Eagles from a distance. This male landed about 30 feet from me and stood in the water for about ten minutes before heading off. It’s hard to describe sharing this space with him – a truly majestic creature.”

Tamir captured the moment the Bald Eagle lifted off, a magnificent photo, and what a wonderful experience for Tamir. I must say, I'm a little jealous!

Thanks to Tamir for allowing me to share his photo with you here.

Fog covers the Pacific Ocean today like whipped cream, which sends cool air our way. The antidote for the heat wave inland is to head for the coast!

What a sight it was! Dave Allen captured the magic of this Supermoon.

Dave wrote, "Did anyone else get a taste of this morning's eye candy? 😉
A photograph can hardly convey the sheer beauty and absolute miracle of a rock, we call earth!"
