Field Trip! The Santa Lucia Conservancy was donated in the 1830s, when California’s Mexican governor granted the Preserve’s original parcels of about 20,000 acres. This is the bottom tip of the Coastal Redwoods trees being preserved; the top coastal tip advancing to Oregon.
This was our tour guide showing us that Redwoods live to be 2,000 years old. Most of the Redwoods in our area are under 1,000 years old. 
These redwoods are several hundred years old. When looking from below, the top of the tree seems never ending.
Then there are the mother trees that would take about 20 people holding hands to be able to encircle.
The unusual branch pattern has become a Village for Owls. It was fascinating to walk below the trees and view the pellets of the un-digested 'stuff' such as fur and bones that squish together to form a ball-like figure, otherwise called a cast.
