This is the time of year when it can be sweltering inland and barely 60 on the coast. We aimed for the middle ground, so to speak, and walked at Pt Pinole Regional Park. The fog was just beginning to lift as we started out and it was quite pleasant. I forgot to check the tide tables and we were lucky to be there just at low tide. That gave us views we don't usually get.
Very few flowers, but plenty of birds...gulls, of course, but also a great blue heron, egrets, cormorants and even an osprey! No picture of that one from me; I rarely carry a long lens.
This was another morning walk. 13 masked hikers and Oscar and Obi, who may breathe freely, enjoyed the fresh air and mild temps. We made a CW loop from the Atlas Rd entrance. Those who walked to the end of the pier registered about 3.2 miles; the rest of us less. The pier is 1/4 mile long.
