Weirdly claustrophobic.

Iris progression…
They went off like fireworks!
Planetary chat…
Jupiter and Venus talking it over.
Artsy fartsy cloud action…
There was some really aesthetically pleasing cloud action in March. First-class stuff. Also, the clouds dropped lots of rain, which was also excellent.
On Brightwater Trail…
Bolsa Chica Wetlands, Pacific Coast Highway, and the Pacific Ocean.
Prickly pear blossom…
Sparrow on the lookout…
Top of the World!
Looking north.
Looking south.
Looking west.
Positively NOT going for a hike.
Meanwhile, at the local library…
Self portrait in a library used book store.
The architecture is weird and wonderful.
They have one of those Chinese terra cotta warriors there.
Keeping an eye on things to make sure everyone is studying and learning.
Sights from a stroll on the pier…
Self-portrait of California girls at the beach in winter.
Smile yourself, Zoltar.
Waiting for the perfect wave. Which is pretty much all they ever do…wait. Even when the surf is good…they wait. Actual surfing doesn’t *really* seem to be their thing.
If you get a magnifying glass, you can just about make out the Newport Pier.
January at Bolsa Chica…
…great blue heron…
…great egret on the prowl…
…it wasn’t messing around either.
Beautiful vista, with a divebombing bird just for good measure.
Coyote den, *right* off of a heavily used walking trail.
Celebrating the new beach parking pass…
…by taking in a beach sunset!
I’m gonna real enjoy this pass, I can tell already.
