Random Photos

Here are a bunch of random photos. Feel free to reload the page to see some more!

A random taste of photos:
A male seagull, closeup of the head in profile. This is either a Sharp-shinned Hawk or a Cooper\'s Hawk, eating a smaller bird. I believe it is a juvenile (fledged some weeks ago). This hawk family lived in a eucalyptus tree on a golf course. Petrified wood in this desolate landscape has been fossilized and turned to stone.
A male seagull, closeup of the head in profile. Purple sea urchins, fish, and other undersea life. A snail checks out the purple wisteria flowers.
Seabirds in Morro Bay, California. (If anyone knows the species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!) The still, murky water of a salt marsh. Rotting logs and a garbage bag partially submerged in the murky green water of a marsh.
Sun-bleached driftwood log on the beach. Leopard shark. Macro of a sunlit spider web (sans spider).
On the left, a silvery green succulent plant of unknown species.  (If you know the species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!)  On the right, a dark red and green succulent groundcover plant, Sedum spurium, AKA Bronze Carpet Stonecrop. Seabirds at Morro Bay, California.  (If anyone knows the species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!) Waves near the rocky coast before a foggy blurred horizon.
Bumblebee on a purple columbine flower. The still water of a salt marsh reflects sky and clouds. Tree-rich hills in Pacheco State Park, California.
An albino alligator resides at the California Academy of Sciences. Grand Canyon Supergroup - Hakatai Sandstone - 1,180 million year old rock. Lovely marsh muck.
Morro Rock reflected in rippled wet sand and backed by fluffy white clouds on a dreamy evening. A cyclist reflected in the water of a salt marsh rides across the horizon. Nene, or Hawaiian goose. The official state bird. This one was very friendly and came close, showing off and looking for a handout.
A garden snail examines the rings on a wood post. Grand Canyon Supergroup - Hotauta conglomerate - 1,200 million year old rock Macro of orange plants. This photo was taken by Geneva Hudspeth and put in the Creative Commons with her permission.
