Brown Pelicans in Fligh

Brown Pelicans. The Tide Pools, Cabrillo National Monument, San Diego CA

It was a beautiful day at Point Loma and Cabrillo National Monument yesterday. Relatively clear with enough clouds in the sky for drama. Cabrillo is not a birding hotspot. There is nothing there you can not see elsewhere in San Diego, but I always spend a morning there when I visit. The landscape and the views are simply too compelling to miss. These Brown Pelicans were soaring along the updraft over the loess cliffs above the tide pools at the foot of Point Loma. Glorious!
