Jon Loveless saw this Bobcat moving through the grasses. Luckily he had his camera handy.
Bobcats are year round residents of the Mendonoma Coast, and they are great rodent hunters. Each Bobcat's coat is unique, just like our fingerprints.
Thanks to Jon for allowing me to share his photo with you here.
The first fawns have been born and they are so very cute. I will share a photo of some soon. Today I want to show you Bucks with their growing antlers covered in velvet. Jon Loveless photographed two Bucks preening each other.
It's a peace on earth moment. Later when these two Bucks might be competing for Does, they won't be so friendly.
Michael Beattie also photographed Bucks near Point Arena on a spectacular day. The lupine bush in the middle is just about to bloom.
Thanks to Jon and Michael for allowing me to share their photos with you here.
It's nothing but blue skies today but as the last storm moved out, beautiful rainbows appeared. Kathleen Mills captured this one.
And Jon Loveless photographed this one.
And finally, Robert Scarola's rainbow.
They were all taken on The Sea Ranch but from different vantage points.
Thanks to Kathleen, Jon and Robert for allowing me to share their photos with you here.
Jon Loveless caught this Bobcat obviously soaking up some rays.
Bobcats can be seen in grassy meadows where they hunt for gophers. They are often seen in the daylight here on the Mendonoma Coast.

As storm after storm slam onto the Mendonoma Coast, the wave action has been amazing. Jon Loveless photographed some dramatic waves off The Sea Ranch. Note the house on the right side of Jon's photo for some scale.
The sound of these big breakers is amazing...listen and you might hear them too.
Today we are being hit with a big storm. It's possible the Garcia River will flood Highway One. After four years of subpar rain years, it is exhilarating to experience these storms.
Thanks to Jon for allowing me to share his photo with you here.
