Day 5 of one of the greatest vacations ever! Full journal of nature adventures here: http://www.inaturalist.org/journal/sambiology/9891-vacation-in-california-news-flash-i-like-california
Using the great existing observations from the San Francisco Bay area and species guide to help with the ID's -- but please correct me if I've goofed. Almost ALL of these organisms were new for me!
Elizabeth and I walked around Shollenberger Park in Petaluma (before the fabric stores opened up!). This is a great park for birding -- lots of neat things we saw.
Okay dumping all the rest of my images from city competition on here. Many have not been id'd. That will come later tonight if I can stay awake.
This guy has been hanging out in this bush for the last couple of days.
