Thom Matson has been enjoying two fawns near his home on The Sea Ranch. He recently photographed them, showing they have lost their spots.
Lovely photo with the ocean in the background. These two fawns are living lightly on the land at Sea Ranch.
Young fawns are following their moms across Highway One. Just this morning a Doe and her fawn crossed right in front of us. It could pay dividends for you to slow down!
Thanks to Thom for allowing me to share his photo with you here.
It's fun to see what people do with driftwood that has been tossed on the beach. Margaret Lindgren found this structure on Walk-on-Beach at The Sea Ranch.
The bluff access to Walk-on-Beach was closed for some years due to bluff erosion. However it recently was reopened with the trail moved a bit inland. Many are very happy and grateful this trail is back open.

Richard Kuehn must have a lot of good luck as he sees an amazing amount of green flashes from his bluff top home on The Sea Ranch. It helps that he can see the sunset over the ocean every day of the year and that he takes the time to watch every sunset he possibly can. He recently photographed the green flash.
Rick and I can't see the sunset three months of the year - it is blocked by Fish Rock Ridge - but we are now able to watch it as it "sinks" into the ocean. We too will be watching for this special mirage, the green flash.
Thanks to Rich for allowing me to share his photo with you here.

The White Fawn is startling to see - you almost can't believe your eyes! It has a normal-colored sibling. Allen Vinson recently photographed this special fawn, which can be seen grazing at The Sea Ranch.
You can see that it is not an albino and it is beginning to color up a bit. To see a photo of this fawn with its twin posted on May 28th, here is the link: http://www.mendonomasightings.com/2014/05/28/a-white-fawn-was-born-on-the-sea-ranch/
Thanks to Allen for allowing me to share his photo with you here.
Margaret Lindgren leads hikes here on the Mendonoma Coast. On a hike last month she discovered a rare and endangered wildflower, Supple Daisy, Erigeron Supplex. She found it on The Sea Ranch and I understand there are more of these flowers on the Point Arena/Stornetta Lands.
I haven't seen this native wildflower yet but hope to see it next year.
