Blue Angels Practice Flight & San Francisco Scenery (10-9-2015)

I was in San Francisco, CA on 10-9-2015. On this Friday, the Blue Angels was doing practice flights for the air show on the weekend. While I do not have much interest in air planes (or big crowds), I did still stop for a few photos of the aircrafts. For this blog post, I have photos of the Blue Angels practice flights, and photos of San Francisco scenery shot near Fisherman's Wharf.

Birds/Sea Lions/Other Wildlife - San Francisco (Part 2)

I live in the San Francisco Bay Area. I am pretty sure all you long time fans know that by now. This means I head to San Francisco a lot. I love going to Pier 39 and that pier right next to the Golden Gate Bridge. Here are some of my photos from my trip. I hope you enjoy viewing these photos!

Message From The Photographer: So 6 weeks of coughing, and I finally get myself up to go see a doctor. I got some antibiotics and I feel a lot better now. 😀 So I should be able to make more videos now that the cough subsided, and big announcement for you guys. I will head to Death Valley soon and I hope to bring back some great photos for you guys! So make sure you check back soon!

The photos for today was taken on the day of the Blue Angel's airshow. If you want to see those photos, you can do so here. Photos for today include birds, fish, animals, and jellyfishes.

I think this bird might be female. I'm not sure what it is, help me in the comments below if you can!

This was one aggressive pelican! I tried to give it a pet, and it tried to give me a peck on the face. :/ I backed off immediately. Later, I saw another guy trying to give it a pet, and he actually got a peck on the arm. I later asked him and he said it hurt! ROFL 

Sea lion.

Awww it's looking at me. :D

I saw a jellyfish swim up to the surface, so I stole some shots of it before it swam back down. 

This is all the photos for today! I have one more post on San Francisco. Next time I have photos of sunsets, Cliff House, and more birds!

Message From The Photographer: I just noticed I actually have photos from San Francisco from two trips there! One time to take my friend to see San Francisco (he just moved here), and a second time to go see the Blue Angels Air Show! So I will be kind of combining these 2 trip photos into a chain of blog posts. If you want to see my Blue Angels photos, you can do so here.

The photos for today will include the view of Alcatraz Island from the pier near the Golden Gate Bridge, Sutro Baths, a photo of the Golden Gate Bridge, some flowers, some bird photography, and two photos on Treasure Island on my way back home.
