White Cat (Cloverdale) - Sonoma County  1976

Taken in March, 1976, as we were driving up to Elk Cove for a bed and breakfast stay.

Can't remember exactly why we stopped in Cloverdale, but I do remember the cat scooting by me, then leaping up on the fence, waiting there just long enough for me to take the photo.

I used a Nikon F SLR with Panatomic-X film.

Cat - San Francisco  1989

No animal photos taken during the 1989 backpack, alas. I'm pretty sure that I saw this creature in San Francisco, possibly in Golden  Gate Park.

The creature in the top photo has been seen before. Cat in bottom photo only seen once! Huh. Kind of reminded me of some exotic cats that I saw in Los Angeles.

Cloudy - Berkeley  2025

Cloudy first showed up on the blog in 2017, with many appearances thereafter.  At first encountered strictly outdoors, but recently, inside Jim and Margaret's house. 

For various reasons I found myself alone inside their house last January, when someone started banging on the screen door. Yep, it was Cloudy. Cloudy definitely wanted something, probably food, but didn't get anything from me.

Cloudy - Berkeley  2024

We were over in Berkeley so that Margaret and Jim could check out my new Sony RX100VII. When we arrived we were gratified to see that Cloudy was hanging around their front yard. Then it transpired that Cloudy was being let into their house! Wow!

I took a photo of Cloudy on the living room carpet, but with not enough space above the creature's head in the photo. So I added some extra carpet using Photoshop. (Original shot below.)

Cat (Fairfax) - Marin County  2023

Dog (Fairfax) - Marin County  2023

Nice looking animals seen on our morning walks. When I first saw the cat, I wished that I had a camera with a zoom lens with me . . . then I realized that in fact I had a camera with a zoom lens dangling around my neck. Photos taken with a Nikon Z5 and a 24-200mm zoom lens.
