Some highlights from April trip to Northern California.

 This Long-tailed weasel popped out of a gopher hole on Bolinas Mesa, 4/22. Only after seeing the photo did I notice that his left ear was missing!

 It was a real treat to find this male Pileated woodpecker hammering away among the bays and oaks in suburban SanVenetia, 4/23.

 And another treat to find 5 Black Oystercatchers on the rocks at Kehoe beach, Pt Reyes, 4/25.

Land's End, Black Oystercatchers, Pelicans.

 Black Oystercatchers, one of my favorites and the only ones I saw.

 Brown Pelicans and Cormorants on Seal Rocks.

Land's End.
