Three birds in flight over the breaking waves on the shoreline. These birds (known as Brandt's Cormorants) are expert divers and can swim deeper than 200 feet in pursuit of fish. #photography #birds #birdphotography #eastcoastkin #westcoastkin #photographersofbluesky #westcoastphotography

They’re always on the move. Took that with my iPhone which also adds to the challenge. 😀

The pelicans were out this morning in Morro Bay, California. They are hard to photograph but I managed to capture one just before it took flight.

There’s something quietly powerful about watching a Great Blue Heron in its element. This one stood perfectly still among the coastal dunes scanning the shoreline for its next meal.

I liked the perspective this view showed of the dune vegetation in the foreground and Morro Rock and sunrise sky in the background.
