Natural Bridges State Beach

Walked to Natural Bridges State Beach today and visited the Visitor Center, where we purchased two magnets and learned a bit about monarch butterflies and various marine organisms. Watched two people bodyboarding.

The woman behind the counter mentioned she had recently visited our apartment complex with friends, in an attempt to see if she might personally hear a young coyote howling (evidently, some of her friends had passed along the news). The fellow residents told her, I believe, that coyote howls occur frequently, as coyotes may use the railroad tracks as a vector for traveling to and fro. Dawn confirmed she also has heard the coyotes, occasionally.
