Escape To Nature In Novato: Photo Of The Week

NOVATO, CA – When you need a break from freeways, commuting and the daily 9-to-5 hustle, stop by Scottsdale Pond in Novato and enjoy nature's version of entertainment: birds, wildlife, walking paths and serenity.

Patch reader Elsa Rodriguez did just that and sent us a photograph of the local oasis with a raft of ducks, rippling water reflections and dreamy colors. It is a lovely image, Elsa, and thanks for sharing!

If you have an awesome photo of nature, breathtaking scenery, kids caught being kids or a pet doing something funny or something unusual, we'd love to feature it on Patch. We're looking for high-resolution images that reflect the beauty that is the Bay Area.

Send your photos to autumn.johnson@patch.com, and we'll post the feature on an occasional basis. Please include when and where the shot was taken and any other details about what was happening.
