Two years in a row now! A white Fawn is born on The Sea Ranch and Gerda Randolph photographed the special fawn.
You can see that its sibling is normal-colored. This fawn isn't an albino. It is considered a tow-head and will eventually color up. This white fawn is at risk because it lacks the normal camouflage of a fawn. Hopefully it will thrive, as did last year's white fawn.
Thanks to Gerda for allowing me to share her photo with you here.
It is wonderful to see a Bobcat saunter by your back deck. That's just what happened to Thom Matson at his home on The Sea Ranch.
You can clearly see its tufted ears and short, bobbed tail. Below is another photo of the Bobcat, walking across a meadow with the Pacific Ocean as a backdrop.
Bobcats love gophers and The Sea Ranch meadows have plenty of them!
Thanks to Thom for allowing me to share his photos with you here.
Robert Scarola was at the bluffs overlooking the Tide Pool rookery on The Sea Ranch when he saw a mother Harbor Seal leading her pup towards the water. 
Next you will see the pair enter the water. 
And finally Robert imagines the mother is telling her pup, "A job well done!" 
There has to be a first time for everything! Thanks to Robert for allowing me to share his photos with you here.
Bobcats are being seen more frequently the past couple of weeks. It appears the mothers are hunting for "real" food for their kittens. Janet Burch recently photographed one on The Sea Ranch.
You can see the Bobcat is looking right at Janet and her camera. This cat with the tufted ears and bobbed tail is a year round resident of the Mendonoma Coast. Look for them in grassy meadows hunting for their favorite food - gophers!
Thanks to Janet for allowing me to share her photo with you here.
It amazes me that King Boletes are being found in April. They "normally" fruit in the fall after the first rains. But this hasn't been a normal weather year. The rains we had in February and March have prompted a very late bloom in some places.
Alon Fish and Tony Gatchalian found some beauties near Manchester.
This delicious edible mushroom is also called Porcini or Cep. Cece Case found one too, this one near The Sea Ranch
Lucky mushroom foragers! I do wonder what will happen in the fall - will there be a strong fruiting of King Boletes? Time, of course, will tell.
Thanks to Alon and Cece for allowing me to share their photos with you here.
