"Hurry up and die! I'm hungry"

I hope the vultures aren't trying to tell us something.
Actually, there was a sea lion carcass on the beach
that attracted every vulture in central Baja.

An Osprey is also checking out the sea lion,
but wasn't really interested.

This bird found our freshwater leak.

Feeding the birds. They love dry cat food ... ocean fish flavor.

Heerman's Gull juvenile

Flying in place against a 20+ knot
breeze.


This blue heron seems confused about the feeding etiquette. The vultures are jumping right in for their meal of sea lion while the blue heron watched for several hours. No doubt the fact that the heron's normal food is wiggling is causing some confusion..

Both shots are of Punta Bufeo; however, there is a big difference in the sea conditions. In the photo on the left the wind was blowing 20+ knots with gusts to 35 or 40.
