After a month’s delay on this project, due to weather and sickness and travel and more sickness, I returned this chilly morning with a spot I had scoped out last week, at the new Fort Ord Dunes State Park in Marina.

A view from atop a dune, with a pond below reflecting the rising light of morning. That was the idea.

But when I got there, the sizeable pond I saw last week was gone.

GargoyleAvid readers of this blog (both of you) may have noticed I haven’t updated in a bit. The weather has been crappy and I decided not to waste any of my Days of Dawn on overcast mornings.

However, during the past week I started another blog, shot entirely with my cameraphone, posted entirely from my phone.

It’s not everyday that you see an endangered species, especially one that came as close to the brink as the California Condor. So it’s pretty special when you see six of them at once, and two of them fly below you, gliding silently along the coastal cliffs of Big Sur.
