The California Naturalist program I am leading this morning encourages people to pause, and keep a journal. I pause too. But I continue to pay attention to my surroundings, and use my camera to take notice. This is a big part of noticing, for me, a visual journal. A pair of red-tailed hawks circled above us, and I set down my journal and picked up my camera. From Road F, just into the serpenting grasslands from the blue oak forest, 10:59:04 am.
