"This is the violet hour, the hour of hush and wonder, when the affectations glow and valor is reborn, when the shadows deepen along the edge of the forest and we believe that, if we watch carefully, at any moment we may see the unicorn."

Animals Near the Beach - It Must Be ANIMAL WEDNESDAY!

Coyotes?  In San Francisco?  Near the Beach?  Ah, it's true my friends. 
I mentioned a few months ago how I once encountered a Coyote deep in the forests of the Presidio.... he must have *gone West* like so many others....and now, right on the cliffs overlooking the Western-most tip of SF...I came across this sign!  (No Coyotes in sight though...)

*Embiggen* please!~  I was standing right on the cliff edge....wind blowing like crazy....when three Pelicans soared by.... they were so fast, by the time I struggled to get my camera aimed (and not fall off the cliff) they were already out over the Pacific - looking for lunch!

I also encountered a beautiful memorial to WW II  Men who perished at sea... I was enchanted to see Pegasus amid the Stars and Pisces and Waves.... here is the plaque with the description of what it symbolises.

And here is the actual memorial.

I leave you with a few scenic shots of those cliffs where I encountered the Pellies....  HAW!



Happy Animal Wednesday!

Love,
