Bees, Birds, a Butterfly and Two Boardwalks

Commenced this pleasant walk at 12th Avenue at Mountain Lake Park. Curved round the lake (first photo) to the dunes stairway and boardwalk -- including the wide steps on the boardwalk itself: 104 steps (second photo; to the right are homes on Wyman Ave.) It's difficult to make myself get up and move on when I sit at one of the built-in dunes viewbenches up here (third pic: looking back the way I came).

Crossed Battery Caulfield into the Presidio Forest. Rarely take the same trail twice when walking through this thick-sand woods.

Thumbtacked to the lone bench at the east trailhead for the Lobos Creek Boardwalk was a note:

“Follow the steps
 between the hills of sand
 Reach down to the ground
 hold some in your hand”

Continued on to stroll the Lobos Creek Boardwalk Trail out to its north trailhead at Lincoln and Bowley, enjoying multiple bees and birds and a large butterfly amongst the native plants.

    I like meandering around on San Francisco's park trails and public stairways, sometimes taking photos, and enjoying nature and the outdoors.
