Point Lobos State Natural Reserve
There is amazing geology at Point Lobos, and yet Laura and I were somewhat oblivious to that fact since our main goal for the day was to get a nice family photo at the ocean and to see as much wildlife as possible for Z. Sea Otters, gulls, geese, crows, hawks… all were seen by the keen-eyed Zephyr. As were the cobalt blue coves surrounded by groves of cypress trees that were themselves covered in lichen. A bit of the science can be found in the individual photo descriptions.
