Saw a nice exhibit today on Ansel Adams and on Queen Victoria’s photography collection. Then saw the American Crow chasing after a Red-tailed Hawk, just after getting off the tram at the end of the day. Photo of me by Ron Wong.
I’m reading about Roger Tory Peterson’s involvement with the National Audubon Society back in the day. It’s nice to contribute to my local chapter by being on the board and taking a few photos from time to time. I also took a portrait of Scott Logan, owner of Wild Wings, the store where we had our meeting.
I stopped the shutter down to 1/30 second and held on tightly as the bus sped into view causing a blur. Sense of motion, with the word “Splendid” above the store just fitting in. Rocky and Bullwinkle are indeed splendid on the marquee. 
After the SFVAS board meeting, photographer Jackie Wollner was kind enough to take a picture of me holding a print of the book cover. The book probably exists by now and is being shipped from China. 
The helicopters were overhead for about a half hour. They checked out Lear’s house and flew over to Dennis Tito’s across the canyon to the right. LA is in the background. This is the view from my house, where I have my bird garden. Pretty amazing that I have all this nature so close to what I believe is the greatest city in the world. 
The LAFD in action recently. Great guys.
