Deer Island Open Space Preserve in Novato, Ca is a small park with a 2 mike loop running through around the perimeter. Full of wildlife and great scenery. #Hiking #Green #OpenSpace #Marin #California #Outdoors
Every year, hundreds of Great Egrets congregate in this large tree on the Bel Marin Keys public access trail. For weeks I was captured by the beauty of their flight and their incredible hunting techniques. I crouched on the rocks opposite this Great Egret for half an hour, trying to get this action shot. Well worth it if I do say so myself, I hope you all agree

Big Rock trail in Lucas Valley/ Loma Alta Open Space preserve. Even in the height of summer, with the grasses dry and brown, the views are amazing! Remember to bring water and sunblock as you hike on the ridge line. There are lovely ‘oasis’ along the way in the form of islands of trees and even a spring fed water trough for horses. Links to Bay Area Ridge Trail. #Hiking #AboveItAll #MarinOpenSpaceCA
