This morning was the 5th annual @paddleforpeace Juneteenth event and I was happy to be invited back to photograph some of the joy filled happenings. Here are a few of the images that caught my eye on the first look through. I’ll share a link to the rest in a few days when I finish editing them. #PaddleForPeace #Juneteenth #DiversifyTheCoast #SanDiego taken in La Jolla Shores, San Diego, Calif. by @birdersurfer

I can’t think of a better way to start a Friday than attending the 18th annual San Diego Harvey Milk Diversity Breakfast with @birdersurfer. We made some new friends and got to meet author and this year’s Harvey Milk Leadership Awardee @iamgmjohnson, who signed our copy of All Boys Aren’t Blue. 😍

“I know that you cannot live on hope alone, but without it, life is not worth living. And you...And you...And you...Gotta give em hope.” ❤️‍🩹🏳️‍🌈

This #KentuckyWarbler was found yesterday to the delight of many local birders. This is the 328th species I’ve seen within 5 miles of home, and 449th in #SanDiego county. Excited to see what ends up being 450! #birding #birdnerd #5MR #5MRbirding taken in San Diego, California by @birdersurfer

Here are some mediocre shots of some good birds I’ve seen close (within 5 miles) to home the past few days. #5MR #5MRbirding #birding #sandiego taken in San Diego, California by @birdersurfer

Turned 50, got COVID, last dose of Paxlovid this morning and feeling good so I took the longboard out to get some fresh air. #fuckICE #freepalestine 🇵🇸 taken in San Diego, California by @birdersurfer

While I’m mostly focused on birding these days, I still appreciate a perfect, empty, surf spot, even if it’s a bit chocolatey. (Snowy Egret included for my birding friends) #mexico #olas #tubos #chocolate #surf #wave taken in Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory by @birdersurfer

This amazing human turned 50 today and got five special desserts over the last week, one for each decade. 🎂❤️ If we’ve learned anything after all the loss in the last year—dear friends and the tens of thousands murdered in Gaza—it’s how precious life is. What a gift to turn 50. 🥹 I am the luckiest one to have Nathan in my life. Happiest of birthdays, mi amor. 🥰😘 taken in Mexico by @birdersurfer
