How to be prepared.
2
Koba and I were a bit late but we were also prepared.
3
Always with the ears.
4
Some dog jumped right over this bird. The phone's auto lookup stuff had no guesses.
5
It was not a well bird. No visible injuries. Just barely animated.
6
We moved off a distance and Koba chased the ball a bit.
7
Rough shore break surf today.
8
Vultures have surrounded the bird.

Vultures only eat dead things, so this waiting ritual is a bit surprising.

From here I shot a video which is stored elsewhere. I don't think the vultures ever got this bird though.

19
No eggs benedict within cycling distance so lunch today is leftover chile verde burrito.
20
Not a bad habit to keep.
21
That whole outflow of fresh water is gone today.
22
Nice shot but let's get the whole rock in.
23
Whole rock: check. Dog holding the pose: Not so much.
24
How about fetching a stick today.
25
The thing with Mr. Chompy here and sticks, is the sticks get shorter just about every time he fetches them.

27
That seabird that was on the sand isn't there anymore. The tide has been rising.

Did not expect to see wood for sale here!

31
It is getting cold as the sun is even getting close to the horizon. Fire it up.
32
Peak sunset.
33
Spicy korean pork and rice. Yum.
34
Time to log onto the fire.
35
It is big but it is burning with some enthusiasm.
36
Milky Way check.

Pleasing effect
