Winter is a good time for spotting hawks. Where there are open meadows, you can often spot a hawk sitting on top of a telephone pole looking for its next meal.

Paul Brewer spotted this Hawk, just as it took flight. It is a immature Red-shouldered Hawk, a hawk of the forest.

Red-shouldered Hawks are found where there are tall trees and water, and they are year round residents of the Mendonoma Coast. Their call is a plaintive whistle. If you'd like to hear it, here is the link to the Cornell Lab of Ornithology: http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Red-shouldered_Hawk/sounds

Two mornings in a row the sunrise was spectacular. I've already shared Carolyn André's series of photos of November 16th. Here are several more. Robert Scarola took this photo on November 16th of the sunrise in the east.

And the hits just keep on coming - one beautiful sunrise followed by a spectacular sunset. Paul Brewer was out photographing them. Here is the sunrise of Nov. 4th. Gualala Sunrise 11.14.13 by Paul Brewer And here is the sunset the night before, taken from the Gualala Bluff Trail with the sunset reflected in the Gualala River. Sunset from the Gualala Bluff Trail by Paul Brewer The Gualala Bluff Trail is a perfect place to watch the sunset. There are two public access points. The first is just to the south of the Breakers Inn and the second is the driveway/entrance to the Surf Motel. Thanks to Paul for allowing me to share these visions of loveliness.

These Monarchs are part of the Methuselah generation that will live for seven months or so, migrating down to Baja California.
