W
ith the ocean on one side and the mountains on the other, few populated places in the world have managed to learn to live with and preserve the variety of wildlife literally at their front door as we have here in Santa Cruz County. David Cruz is a local photographer who enjoys documenting life both of the human and wild varieties – even though it sometimes is difficult to tell the difference. Here are some of his recent findings.
