This final page for this month begins with a June 18th trip out to Angel Rocks and a hike of the 3 - 4 mile loop trail.  The only thing after that are several shots of birds at our bird feeders and that's all for this month.  Click on any thumbnail to begin.

Begin June 18th
  On June 18th we took a trip out to Angel Rocks and climbed/hiked the 3 - 4 mile (it depends on which sign one believes as to whether it's 3 or 4 miles) loop trail. Here are three scenic shots of these rocks.
