Catching Up -- 2/22/15
A quick trip to break the monotony of a rainy day -- it appears that some sailboats go out no matter the weather!
It also appears that the great blue herons may be returning to the colony to nest. They are later this year than before -- perhaps due to the weather, and perhaps due to the fact that there are fewer nests available. I hope to see more soon.

The delight of many sailors is to challenge the inclement. I think I would probably find something else to do on a rainy day.
The blue herons will be in my view on Tuesday. I think stops at Solano Beach and Dana Point will be in order.
I hope there will be enough blue herons to make a visit to Dana Point worthwhile (see your e-mail, too)!
I'm so happy that the herons have started to return!
Me, too, Val -- there was actually a little nest-building happening today!
Never tired to look at the Blue Herons. So beautiful birds
Thanks, Michel -- they really are beautiful!
Yes! We sailor's laugh at the rain. We say, "Yo ho and a bilge full of rain! HA! Yo ho HA!
Sail on... sail on!!!
Hah! The trick is that Southern California doesn't know what rain is!
I love watching the sailboats in Monterey Bay.
They are beautiful to watch!
I look forward to seeing more pictures of the herons.
There was actually some nest-building happening today -- just a couple of birds, but that's a good sign that there will be more!
