Coastal scene, Santa Cruz Island, Channel Islands National Park. A very pleasant day in the park, this photograph shows a sparkling Pacific Ocean as it meets the coastal contours of Santa Cruz Island. In the lower part of the photo, kelp hugs the shoreline, with intriguing near-shore rocks just above. The ocean (right) is a collection of deep blue colors, while the island geology and vegetation (left) in this view are tan, orange, and a variety of greens. Wispy white clouds snake across a medium blue sky (upper third).

Santa Cruz Island Fox. About the size of a housecat, they recovered from near-extinction only in the last 20 years. Now a wee apex predator!

A trail shaded by a big tree with smooth pale bark peeling in strips to reveal red under-layers; down the sun-dappled trail a small shed is visible, and sunlit hills beyond

A very small gray fox with red-orange ears and breast and some white patches at its muzzle, lying in a patch of shade with an apparently thoughtful expression
