I love your pictures tehag.Always open your posts.We have those Herons here in Dana Point, in the harbor.They are funny birds.Never seen one catch a fish!The great Blues are nesting in the eucalyptus trees, the night herons sleep in the dense trees at the west end of the haror and the green herons, they can be found in the oddest places, hiding under a biminie(sp) or sitting like a statue on a dock.Thanks for the great pics!

Fantastic photos----I really love the different angles in number one and number four.

Great pics and you must have a good lens on your camera to capture these birds instead of having them fly off as you try to take pictures. Loreto and La Paz are two of my favorite places in Baja but not in the summer!! Both have some good fishing, good eating along with really friendly helpful people there. However, in the summer Rosarito will do just fine along with all of the friendly people who live there also.
