A Story of Recovery
By Beth Cataldo (As published on the River Otter Ecology Project web site) In 2012, I ventured out to Sutro Baths to see a San Francisco celebrity. With his thick dark hair, slender, streamlined body and expert swimming skills, he was an overnight media sensation. Charismatic? Check. Quirky? Check. Mysterious? Yes. I wanted to getContinue reading "A Story of Recovery"

Comment Now to Keep our Underwater Sanctuaries Safe
The summer of 2017 is turning out to be a Humpback whale extravaganza in the San Francisco Bay. Yesterday, I saw five whales spouting, breaching and eating for about two hours. With wildlife so close to our urban world, who doesn’t want to marvel at these behemoths jumping out of the water? While theyContinue reading "Comment Now to Keep our Underwater Sanctuaries Safe"
Keeping an Eye Out for Birds
This time of the year, California is a stop-over point for birds heading down to their wintering range. Watching birds fly in groups over the ocean or land is a spectacle of beauty that I seek out each year. This past weekend, I headed over to a brickyard in San Rafael, where Vaux Swifts stop off for a coupleContinue reading "Keeping an Eye Out for Birds"
What the negative tide revealed
There are secret beaches and caves that appear out at Point Reyes when there is a negative tide, which is when the water is below the usual tide line. In May, a small group met at 6:30am to trek the 9 miles out to the secret beaches and caves in a secret location at Point Reyes. AlongContinue reading "What the negative tide revealed"
Beach Beauties of Summer
Ocean Beach offered up all sorts of uncommon visual marvels this past Tuesday, including Vellela (commonly known as by-the-wind sailor), different types of algae, and remnants of all sorts of hard-shelled creatures.

Imprints in the Sand
While looking for debris recently on a visit to North Point Beach in Ano Nuevo State Park in Northern California I found these imprints.

Cuba: Face-to-face with Fidel, December 1993
They emerged from the smoke like angels looking for their ride back to heaven. Bodies appeared, waving arms issued from the smoggy dark, faces looked meaningfully at the car's headlights. "Mira," I shouted, "Watch out!" "No problema, mujer," the driver responded, not looking in my direction. He careened towards one of the observers, but missedContinue reading "Cuba: Face-to-face with Fidel, December 1993"
