Point Reyes National Seashore and San Francisco, California

Photo Gallery (April 17-20, 2007)

I was attending a week-long conference in San Francisco, and took half a day to drive up to Point Reyes National Seashore, about 30 miles north of San Francisco.  I would have loved to have spent more than part of a day there, as there were wonderful photo opportunities for birds and landscapes.  Still, I came away with a handful of "lifers", and some major photo upgrades on other species.  I found I could just get a lot closer to many species here than the same species back in South Dakota.

The non-bird shots are from both San Francisco and Point Reyes.
