I had the great fortune to spend time recently in #PinnaclesNationalPark. I spotted dozens of condors, countless turkey vultures and wild turkeys, dozens of smaller birds, coyote, and this red-shouldered hawk.

Pinnacles National Park: where delicate wildflowers meet the ancient, jagged roar of volcanic spires. A masterclass in high-contrast beauty and the "finer" details of the trail. Seeking the soul of California’s rugged art gallery. 🌸 ⛰️ #PinnaclesNationalPark #RefinedAndWild

Now that I have hit 2k followers, here is a California whipsnake (Masticophis lateralis) 🐍 for your #bluesky feed. We saw it in #California this summer while hiking through the #pinnaclesnationalpark. No condors but can't complain 😉 #herping #snakes
In our region it’s also tarantula season. At Pinnacles this time of year male tarantulas leave burrows and are all over the roads and trails.. rangers are typically out trying to get drivers slow down en route #PinnaclesNationalPark 🕷️

#PinnaclesNationalPark is a spectacular place to travel and experience the wonders of the #DiabloRange. In 2013, Pinnacles officially became a national park, having been a national monument for over a century.

Golden light kissed the rugged spires of Pinnacles, turning stone into fire and shadows into stories as the sun started to set. A perfect reminder that nature’s beauty is best shared.

Seriously though if you haven’t been to the #pinnaclesnationalpark you are missing out! #naturephotography
This was the last time I was #pinnaclesnationalpark … the day before it was announced that we were going on a lockdown in 2020 I hiked 10 miles that day… I miss going out and taking #naturephotography … I need to plan something soon…
With everything going on in Washington DC lately I just wanted to share a picture I took at #pinnaclesnationalpark a while back… I pray that the national parks stay safe… it’s a scary time… I need to go back some day and take more pictures #naturephotography

Took a little walk. We wound up here. #outside #nature #pinnaclesnationalpark
Lived within 100 miles of this place almost my whole life, but took me 41 years plus to actually visit. Worth the wait. #PinnaclesNationalPark #Nature #ColorPhotography
