'Enchanting' Estero De San Antonio: CA Photo of The Week

NORTHERN CALIFORNIA — Patch reader Blair Hardman took a break from his bike ride along Whitaker Bluff Road last month to capture this photo of the beautiful Estero de San Antonio near Bodega Bay.

Estero de San Antonio flows in California's Marin and Sonoma counties and its stream filters into Bodega Bay.

"My friends and I often ride our bikes from Bloomfield to Tomales via the many scenic and un-busy farm roads," Hardman told Patch. "Whitaker Bluff is well known among geologists as a rich source of fossils, and the still waters of the Estero winding through the vibrant green hills never fails to enchant me."

Thanks for sharing!

If you have an awesome picture of nature, breathtaking scenery, kids caught being kids, a pet doing something funny or something unusual you happen to catch with your camera, we'd love to feature it on Patch.

We're looking for high-resolution images that reflect the beauty that is California.
