Red Tail Hawk, photo by Harold Davis. View this image larger.
One advantage to spending the night out at the end of Point Reyes is being there first thing in the morning. I got up by the light of early dawn and wandered the bluffs near the Chimney Rock Trail. This hawk was there to greet me, and let me get within about twenty feet—all the while perched with a view out over the ocean to the west.
