It was my kind of day, overcast, cloudy and actually could have rained. It wasn't until I was deep inside the wetlands that I realized if it had rained there was no place to hide from it and it was no short trek back to the car. Gratefully, it didn't rain.

I hope this fella doesn't mind that I took his photo and posted it.
Long Billed Curlew & Blue Heron
Funny, when I took these photos it was from such a distance I, as well as some other people on the path, thought we were looking at babies in the nest. It wasn't until I got home and uploaded that I realized there were actually three birds in the nest and from the other side what we though we saw moving were feathers, not little beaks.

What a beautiful place! Your bird photos look great - and what an interesting mix of creatures!
I'm glad you went ahead and showed us all of these pictures. Truly wonderful shots of a beautiful place.
Wonderful photos. I had hear of Bosa Chica but never got around to going when I lived in southern Cal. You've showed me what I missed.
You do take some wonderful bird photos. I also would not be able to decide on just one or two. Very nice!

stunning shots, liked them all.
Wonderful pictures and they make me wonder why I hardly ever went here. I lived right next to it in Costa Mesa. Such a beautiful place.
...no apology needed :)

Wonderful series. :)
Wow you must be a professional They are fantastic. Especially the 4th one and the birds in the nest

Marvelous place, relaxing!!!
Now and Then
Quite a collection!You have a great eye, very detailed and nice composition. I've been told about Bolsa Chica, but haven't got the chance to visit.
I don't mind a bit. Your photography is always such a delight... Its like candy for the eyes :D
This is a fantastic collection of pics TB. WOW!! I cannot choose a favorite out of them as they are all brilliant.
no need to apologize 'coz more photos mean more visual treat for all of us. i just love the critters and the birds and you really showed your talent in capturing snaps of them. great job.
thank you for posting all those lovely pictures! they are all so wonderful!
Ouh the three bird you discovered in the nest were not very pretty... The heron landing on the water, on the other hand; what a beauty!
Great shots, not easy to capture birds in motion like that!
That's one hairy little caterpillar. They look a bit nicer like that.;)
I am never going to complain that you have posted too many photos!! I revel in them!!!
I love your bird filled world.
That sky looks an awful lot like our did, yesterday. I love skies like that, so much character in them..
Wonderful bird photos..I really like that one of the heron in flight, just above the water..
very cool shots !!
These are really nice photos of the baby birds in the nest. They look a little irritated -- with hair standing on end. :)
Yuke is that bug on the lense!?! Gross...
Great photos!:)
T: Wonderful captures at the bay with neat music playing along.
Wonderful,wonderful photos. You can post as many as you want! I'll look!
Your photos really capture the beauty of the birds - my favorites are the Heron in flight and in the tidal pool.
Love the fourth shot with the reflection - excellent!
They are all wonderful however.
What a place to go.
It would have been so nice to be watery wet from the rain, a rare thing we do nowadays apart from the childhood days. I loved playing in the rain.
Cool your sounds..beautiful capture of photos..
hey, I went through all this adjusting (my header you mentioned)it just does that if you open your browser with firefox..you won't have a problem with internet explorer? Sorry about that-
OMG you went to Bolsa??? Look like you had a blast did you freeze your tushy off?
What LOVELY photographs you've captured on this dreary day. I've been to Bolsa Chica under similar conditions and thought the same thing, but since it seldom rains here in So Cal I don't worry about it much.
Hugs and blessings,
