Point Reyes Lighthouse
#California #PointReyesThe Point Reyes peninsula (north and west of San Francisco) is gorgeous! Here's a photo from a very, very windy evening at Drake's Beach. View it larger and you'll see the sand being swept across the beach by the wind!

@nationalparks #PointReyes #NationalSeashore is a #nationalpark near San Francisco established in 1962 by John F. Kennedy. The area encompasses a #peninsula and a small section of the adjacent ocean. It is of #tectonic interest because it lies on the #PacificPlate, which moves relative to the #NorthAmericanPlate with the San Andreas Fault between both. The peninsula has a special vegetation: the #Californiacoastalprairie.

Coyote Visit
While photographing the Long-Tailed Weasel in yesterday's post, I was joined by a fellow weasel enthusiast. We all just sat together amidst the fields, keeping a watchful distance from each other, until the Coyote settled in for a mid-afternoon snooze.
