Zebra on the Central Coast

Zebra were originally introduced to San Luis Obispo as part of the "zoo" at Hearst Castle.  Now they range wild across the Hearst Ranch and the hillsides around San Simeon.  They cause quite a stir when grazing along Highway 1, resulting in "zebra jams" as motorists pull off the road to take pictures.

Last weekend found about a half dozen zebra near the roadway, and twice as many cars pulled over to take photos.  I had a long lens on the camera (600 mm) and had to switch to 300 mm because the critters were too close for the big lens.
