If you have been following this series, it will not surprise you to known that I was again out at the Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge. But this was a rainy day. There were no wading birds to be seen. It was a gloomy day

As I sat there listening to the rain, I asked myself the question the great photographer Minor White asked himself, “What will I be given today?” The answer turned out to be right in front of me. I literally focused my lens on the rain drops on the windshield, letting the electrical tower go out of focus. This is my favorite image for this date.

This is what it looked like outside from a different location on the refuge road. Not very exciting.

The rain had let up and tt was time for me to head back to the house. As I drove along the refuge road to leave I spotted this California Ground Squirrel. This is my second favorite image for this date.
