Camera Critters #148 - Ground Squirrels on the Monterey Peninsula - February 5, 2011

These little ground squirrels, cavort all over the rocks along the scenic 17 Mile
Drive which runs between Carmel and Pacific Grove, California.  You pay a fee
to see some beautiful coastal views and posh neighborhoods and you can dine
at Roy's Restaurant at the Inn at Spanish Bay or picnic along the way. 
Recommended picnic spots are between Point Joe and Seal Rock.  There are
even areas where you can find picnic tables and it is wonderful to eat, looking
at the beautiful Pacific and feeling the sea breezes.  The tables have often been
perches for the many sea gulls, though, so it's good to have a table cloth among
your items.

Camera Critters #141 - An Interchange - December 18, 2010



Camera Critters #141 - An Interchange - December 18, 2010

I know I should be packing and organizing my big move the end of February - I
guess going through photographs could be part of that, right.  I found these, from
about twenty years ago, taken down on the Monterey, CA peninsula, when blogging
was not even a figment of my imagination.  I thought they were kind of cute and perfect
for camera critters - though my photography skills ( and the camera back then ) were
pretty awful!



"Okay, fella, you're a lot bigger than me, but share the handouts, please."

 

"Well, his look isn't too friendly but he hasn't pounced yet...."


 
"Wait a minute, big guy, there was room enough for both of us on this rock!"
