The Berkeley Bowl holiday rules are simple: only send your single best shopper, this isn’t the time to bring your out-of-town friends to admire the mushroom selection. Seasons pros only!!

From a foggy Lake Temescal walk this morning.

My 17-year-old son just showed me a text thread with his friends, legit sad & consoling each other over the Claude news. San Francisco loves its animals and its icons. Not even kidding he should lie in state at City Hall. 📸: @jachristian.bsky.social

Can I throw my Bay Area sunset photos in the ring..

In between my daily assignments, I managed to get out and about in the vineyards. For more of these, click the link below : www.pressdemocrat.com/2025/11/26/p... One of the longest vineyard fall color breaks I can remember in Sonoma and Napa County. #kentporterphotography #photojournalism

Spent the day with winemaker Marty Mathis on a sunny hillside in Watsonville while he and his team harvested grapes for his latest project; an Austrian-inspired “quiet white wine” made from a blend of white grapes harvested at once. Read Esther Mobley’s profile on @sfchronicle.com 🍇 bit.ly/4pg8zpm

We have a resident praying mantis living in the blackberry bush. And it dances!

The trail is out there: After spending the last half century looking at the Stanford Dish from 280, I walked the trail & mined our archive to figure out what kind of UFO shit is going on there. As usual @jachristian.bsky.social upstages me with her photos! 📡👽💯 www.sfchronicle.com/totalsf/arti...

The Hayward Fault and I have beef now.

Late-night earthquake casualties. We will rebuild.

No wonder it was scary, it was two miles from my house.

That was probably the strongest earthquake I’ve ever experienced.

Amazing. Couldn't resist inverting it. #BelieveInFilm

Been working in the @sfchronicle.com archives until my wrist gets stronger and I’ve found the most incredible things, most that haven’t seen the light of day in almost one hundred years. This one is from the 1939 World’s Fair on Treasure Island.

❤️🔥 HOT OFF THE PRESSES! 🔥❤️ COYOTE Media Collective is live!! We’re so incredibly proud of this smart, fierce, unapologetic Bay Area media project. Dive in, see what we’ve been building, read our stories, and join the pack! coyotemedia.org

It’s been five years since we woke up to apocalyptic orange skies and everyone stopped for a moment and stared at the sky. Five years since @barackobama.bsky.social shared my @sfchronicle.com photos of that day, a fun fact that will follow me forever.

Crow show in the front yard this evening.

Still on leave, still only able to sit back and watch as my garden grows wild. It’s not so much a garden this year as it is an ecosystem.

my bestie @nuala.bsky.social and my friend crush @emmaruthless.bsky.social are talking all things @coyotemedia.org this morning on @rollovereasy.org so tune in!

I broke my wrist two weeks ago and have read about six books already since I can’t do much else. My TBR is running low so drop your recommendations below! 👇 #📚💙

Legendary songwriter Joan Baez hadn't sat down to write poems in many years. "Lately, the more I read the daily news, the more I’ve felt compelled to write again. Lining up words into sentences that attempt to make sense of the chaos is my bulwark against a creeping feeling of despondency."

Spent a recent afternoon sitting down with Joan Baez’s on her porch in Woodside beneath old oak trees while she read me her newest poems. Every day on this job is unique, but this one was a dream. See the full videos on @sfchronicle.com (gift link 🎁)

Can I offer you some garden pictures in these trying times?

Evening garden check 🌜
