Dealing with the oil spill took its toll on me. That and my day job have kept me quite busy and distracted. I had hoped to get this calendar done earlier, but better late than never.
It wasn’t easy to decide which images to use. There are only 12 months plus the cover and I wanted to include one of each kind of species commonly found here, but the shots had to be sharp and special enough to include. I have yet to get a good shot of a Northern Harrier, and Merlins so far have escaped me completely. Obviously no calendar can do justice to the incredible diversity we are blessed with in the Bay Area, but here is my humble attempt. In it you will find shots of Red-tailed Hawks, Peregrine Falcons, White-tailed Kites plus one shot each of a Cooper’s Hawk and an American Kestrel.
So for those interested, here is a link to my 2008 Calendar
Raptors of the San Francisco Bay Region
Best Regards,
