Paul Brewer recently photographed a mother/calf pair as they swam northward past Gualala. In the first photo the calf breached!

Here's another look at the calf.

And here is the calf with his or her mother. The calf is on the right.

Gray Whale mothers only have one calf per year. She will feed her calf nutrient-rich milk during their long migration.

Paul was photographing on a sunny day. Today we have had unexpected showers. Anytime we get the wet stuff we are happy!

Spring doesn't know...

Sara Bogard was doing her weekly Harbor Seal survey at the bluffs near the Point Arena Lighthouse when she saw this Bald Eagle with its dinner. A Common Raven looks on, but this Bald Eagle - like most, I believe - won't share.

One of my favorite photos of the Gualala Bald Eagles is this one taken by Eric Zetterholm.

Thanks to Sara and Eric for allowing me to share their photos with you here.

The storm moved on, leaving us with a breezy, drifting clouds kind of day.

Paul Brewer captures many of our beautiful sunsets on the Mendonoma Coast. Saturday's sunset was quite beautiful.

It's feels like a privilege to be able to witness such beauty, and to be able to share it with you here. Thanks to Paul for allowing me to do that. To see more of Paul's nature photography, here is the link to his website: http://www.capturingnatureswonders.com/

A high pressure system is keeping any storms from reaching us here. It's 75 degrees this afternoon, which surely feels odd. There are hints of changes in the long range forecast, but the rest of this week is sunny and mild - a good time to head for the coast!

Paul Brewer watched as a pair of Common Ravens tried to chase off one of the two Bald Eagles at the Gualala River. Paul photographed one of the Ravens trying to start down the Bald Eagle. It doesn't look like the Bald Eagle is having any of the Raven's attitude!

ooo, we had rain earlier this morning. We celebrate any of the wet stuff when it's been so dry. We didn't receive a lot but we did get .13 inches. The moss on the trees was moist this morning. I love to run my fingers over it as we walk along a forest path.

Sometimes you look out your window and find someone looking back up at you! Rick Denniston photographed this young Gray Fox visiting his property in Gualala.

The wildlife we are privileged to see here on the Mendonoma Coast can bring wonder and joy into your life.

Thanks to Rick for allowing me to share his photo with you here.

Hot, dry, scary weather is happening now. We have been notified that our power may be shut off beginning Saturday night. Want to join me in a rain dance?
