Point Lobos has several different points, with associated bays and small beaches; one of them was the wondrous pebble beach [below]. I'm guessing the many-colored pebbles came from the conglomerate rocks that form the point.
The tide was on its way out - but this was still an unsafe place for a camera, due to the salty spray in the air.

O lobo-guará habita as pradarias e matagais da América do Sul central, com distribuição geográfica indo desde a foz do rio Parnaíba, no nordeste do Brasil, passando pelas terras baixas da Bolívia, o oeste dos Pampas del Heath, no Peru e o chaco paraguaio, até o estado brasileiro do Rio Grande do Sul.

I'd read the tale many years ago that author Ernest Thompson Seton wrote in his book "Wild Animals I Have Known." Needless to say, when I came up to this setting at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum and saw these two Mexican Gray Wolf for the first time, I could only think back of memories of that moving tale with Lobo and Blanca...about how amazing and impressive the native wild creatures are all around us. That's what this image is about for me. Not just two Mexican gray wolves but the story with two remarkable wolves and their story in the American West.

The white in the foreground on the beach are rhodoliths that look a lot like popcorn.
