The deer watched me very carefully and matched my advance down the service road with a retreat up the hill toward Mt. Miguel. Not a bad shot from 350-feet taken with an Olympus C-50 2x-zoom pocket camera, huh? Of course everything is possible with Photoshop CS3. I just cropped a chunk out of the center of the shot and posted it on personal web space to avoid the resizing always done by Geocaching.com. Of course some color enchancement in the a and b color channels and mojo sharpening in the L channel. Edited July 15, 2008 by SD Rowdies Quote Link to comment

I have a pal that was born in Yuma, Arizona, I always pestered him about Jackalopes. Whenever I was near an Arizona gift shop I always bought-out the Jackalope postcards. Then whenever I was away on business I would send one of the Jackalope cards to my pal with the same message, "Hey Collins, Get back to work!" He even had a mounted Jackalope head attached to his fabric-covered work- space. Somehwere I've got a half-dozen of the postcards left over from my working days, maybe I'll send another one to my pal tomorrow. Edited July 15, 2008 by SD Rowdies Quote Link to comment

+boysnbarrie Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 (edited) That Such A Weird Animal. What is it? What ever it is it's cool. It is a Hermissenda crassicornis, jabridge, also known as a nudibranch. I saw this very small creature in a cave while tide-pooling in Mendocino, CA on July 3rd. I also slipped and hurt my knee real good about 20 minutes after making my way along the shore to the caves. Major ouchie! My sister, rxdoc, got her first degree in marine biology ... and she just HAD to take me out there early in the morning (I made her stop for coffee tho ). She had found another nudibranch about a week prior and sent me a picture of it. Seeing one with my own two eyes was another experience entirely. We saw something else, as were heading out, that she got even more excited about ... maybe I should post a pic of that creature next? Edited July 15, 2008 by boysnbarrie Quote Link to comment
+boysnbarrie Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 When my sister spotted this, she reacted in an amazing way. With all the grass she was fingering through, I was surprised she saw anything at all. I never saw these creatures until she pointed them out to me. This is what she wrote about this star creature later: "We think the brittle star is the Burrowing Brittle Star (Amphiodia occidentalis).... the specimen we found was in extraordinary good shape! No lost limbs nor even lost pieces of limbs. It appears that it's regenerating pieces of lost limbs, though. Choice find!!" So ... apparently, this is exciting . A real "choice find!" Wow, I feel that way when I score a great sale at Macy's. Quote Link to comment

+Team Gecko Posted July 28, 2008 Author Share Posted July 28, 2008 Apologies for falling way behind on logging caches and posting critter photos. Have a variety of local fauna and several from the Rockies from a trip to Estes Park and Rockey Mountain National Park back at the end of June/early July. Will be catching up on logs in coming weeks. In the meantime, I could not resist sharing these Belding's Ground Squirrel shots taken while visiting Lakeshore Picnic II along the shoreline of Lake Estes back on Saturday morning, 28 June. Belding's have long been Gecko family favorites, whether in the high country of the Sierra or at the county park at the northwest corner of Mono Lake. Once again, I ended up on my belly to minimize my profile and let them feel comfortable I was there. Great fun. Almost forgot to get around to searching for the nanocache and I was definitely late for breakfast. -GD Two to tango (Spermophilus beldingi) Can you fall asleep standing up?

+Team Gecko Posted August 1, 2008 Author Share Posted August 1, 2008 Sunday, June 29, 2008 Another critter from our RMNP trip. The White-throated Swift is an amazing aerobatic performer. Its Latin name says it all - Aeronautes saxatalis. On my early morning walks along the shoreline of Lake Estes, these speedsters were regularly in abundance. They are capable of speeds up to 200 mph and reportedly will fly over a million miles during their lifetimes (that's 40 times around the world). These shots were taken near Lake Estes View.

The Meerkats are on Elephant Mesa, quite close to San Diego Zoo Virtual. I did not think to use my cellphone as a camera until after a fantastic tiger encounter that featured all three in a tumble game right in front of us at the lower viewing area. Even mom got in the act and put her nose right up to me across the glass barrier - then roared for the cubs. Wow!

It sure is something to see the twilight Raven flights homing in on night roosting areas nowadays. To see an example of the flights drive north along the I-15 between Mira Mesa and Escondido just at sundown and watch the sky east of the freeway. You'll see flights of twenty to fifty Ravens one after another heading southward all along the way. Local Raven populations have increased dramatically in the past decade. I saw one report claiming a 1,500% increase in the last two decades. We should place some caches near their major roosting areas just to call attention to the Raven population.
