Place: Hiking in Laguna coast wilderness......

Now-a-days I hardly get time to go for hike and  get exhausted, with all those assignments and exams...

Also,  we don't have as many trails in the vicinity of our  San Diego house compared to that in Orange county...So, I derive pleasure by going over the pictures from the past hikes...like this nice hike in Laguna coast wilderness park....apart from the abundance of wildlife, it offered great scenic vista. Sharing some of them...

To me it symbolized true chaparral with all those hardy shrubs...

And from top of the hills, it offered amazing landscape view... 

Also, the clouds were fabulous that day..

This hike was  very resourceful and satisfying one...with myriad interesting findings..middens of woodrats, mistletoes on sycamore, fly-catchers, quail, towhee, wild cucumber, stinking gourd, pixie-cup lichen, oak gull etc...
