4th Grove, Borrego Palm Canyon, Anza-Borrego Desert State Park. Small pool in year-round but greatly diminished creek. These Giant Water Bugs (aka Toe Biters) were seemingly benign until we spotted one grasping this frog and another with a partially consumed tadpole (both California Chorus/Tree Frog). This is our source of water during annual Bighorn Sheep Count, when this sighting was made.

Cabezon caught in a shallow intertidal cove next to the ruins of Sutro Baths in San Francisco. This cove is one of the only easily accessible spots around Lands End that seems to support a healthy population of Cabezon, Grass Rockfish, and Striped Surfperch.

The Cabezon was approximately 13.75”.

Released.
