San Francisco wildlife and a some flowers

The other day, we wandered up to the nearby park. We just felt the need to get out for a bit. I found myself chasing a butterfly called the Pale Swallowtail.

McLaren Park — Papilio eurymedon or Pale swallowtail

I also saw a beautiful Red-shouldered Hawk.

A friend of the blog, Nekoneko, had a bit of an encounter with a raccoon. This video is dedicated to her. 🙂

Thought for the day

If cats ever acquire a sense of ridicule, may God help us.

They will not stand to be embarrassed.

Yesterday I posted photos of the birds at the sanctuary. Today, I’m posting the photos from the wonderful sunrise. I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I enjoyed taking them.

Sunrise on the Peninsula Part One: Birds

Last week, Lastech and I went off to watch a sunrise. He took me to the area where he took his last group of pics. It’s called Shoreline at Mountain View. It is home to a lot of birds. It’s full of birds during the migration season. We plan to go back to take advantage of it.

Shoreline at Mountain View

South of San Francisco is the town of Mountain View. In 1956 the first company to develop silicon semiconductor devices was located there. The area is now known as Silicon Valley. Shoreline Park is built on an old landfill. It features an artificial lake and golf course. It has many trails and is adjacent to the bird sanctuary.

Here are a few photos taken by Lastech at sunrise.
