  2. Went outside for a smoke and there's like FIFTY Crows that are Pisssssssed off.

    "The Fuck?" thinks I.

    Ah, found it ... there's a Juvenile Red Tailed Hawk over by City Hall.

    That would do it.

    Hawks like downtown because there's a pigeon population by the Parking structure between Church and Walnut. So, it's like a buffet. Thing is that cities, even and small as Cruz are too busy for a hawk's sensibilities and they tend to not stay in town long. Crows freaking out doesn't help.

  3. The Patient Hour at Santa Cruz

    As I climbed up the rocks from the beach I spotted a lone fisherman in the distance. He hadn’t caught anything yet but in the bright sunshine I caught a nice silhouette. It was Santa Cruz in Portugal, and a lovely day to be beside the sea....

    I scrambled out onto the rocks at Santa Cruz in Portugal taking photos of various views and then climbed up to a rock platform where I was greeted with this view in front of me. I had an ND filter, but no proper tripod, only a small "plate tripod" that just about did its job of stabilising the camera for 5 seconds. It was a difficult job finding a flat surface to place it on in this area! The Atlantic had gone from a churning, hissing mess to this smeared, milky surface that looks almost […]

  25. "Bay Area construction company illegally polluted river, lawsuit alleges.” Rpt by Paul Rogers, #MontereyHerald.

    Graniterock, "based in Watsonville, has more than 20 offices and locations, incl in San Jose, Concord, Redwood City, South San Francisco, Santa Cruz and Salinas….Lawsuit...stated that the company has been fined four times since 2018 by state #WaterPollution regulators at #CentralCoast Regional Water Quality Control Board. In those cases, settlements required #Graniterock to pay a total of $138K in penalties for water quality violations at the quarry.

    "For each of the 46 incidents involved, the board imposed the minimum penalty of $3K, the lawsuit noted, calling it 'tantamount to a #PayToPollute system' for a company with millions of $ in annual revenue.

    #Pajaro #River, which drains a watershed that extends across parts of #SantaClara, #Monterey, #SanBenito & #SantaCruz counties, meanders through strawberry and other farm fields before emptying into #MontereyBay.”
