Normally I don’t like photos of animals on barbed wire fences. In fact (dirty secret time) in most of my photos of a bird perched on a solitary fence post, I’ve carefully cloned out the barbed wire. But, I think the wire really ties this photo together.

Hopefully, with the buyouts of the ranches at Point Reyes, all of this barbed wire will come down soon. I wouldn’t mind the fence posts staying behind, though. Lots of birds and especially raptors find them to be excellent perches.

One response to “On The Fence”

  1. @jacquesf Land in the area was super cheap when we looked last year. I don't see any listed at the moment, but there was a couple acres available for $55k that local bylaws restricted to no-structures/no-overnight stays. Perfect for a photographer's nature reserve but not what we were looking for.
