In a meadow in mixed forest that includes Coast Redwood sections, at about 2100 feet. Very attractive to bees and to a Mylitta Crescent butterfly.

In the trail.

It made the sound that imitates the Northern Pygmy-Owl!

Took advantage of clippings from the trail maintenance!

Missing its tail, rather dramatically.

Two action shots.

The pursuer becomes the pursued

The Crow had been harassing the RTH, but here the hawk turned that around.

Sorry about the blurriness, it was pretty dark by then.

Late evening near sunset. Lots of little bunnies along the side of Skyline Ridge Trail.

Unbranched antlers in velvet.

A little patch of them. Some with flowers still in bud, some with open flowers and green seed pods.

Young tree.

On an oak tree.

On a living oak tree.

On an oak tree, of course. Ton of these fluttering around all over the preserve.
