Sunday is dog day afternoon in Moro Bay California in winter time!
Squirrels come from all across America for their annual beach convention in Cambria California.
Peli can cage fish from the fishermen,
and is on the lookout for handouts.
Vain egret keeps her feathers looking lovely.
Oystercatcher snoozes in the sun,
while pied billed grebe scouts the sea for supper.
Winter sunset sends you cheers from Oxnard California~

Lovely images, especially nice to see the Grebe shot – I’ve never been able to get close enough to a Grebe here in Melbourne to get a decent shot.

I have one other grebe shot that I should find. I remember that shot well because my camera ran out of battery power as soon as I found the grebe so I could only get one click!

Moro Bay is a quaint old-style California sea-side town (I’m biased, as my cousin lives there).

Beautiful, crystal-clear, sharp photos, Cindy. I love the one dog and his/her human out for a Sunday drive in the hot car!
Nice evening photo of Oxnard, too. I always associate Oxnard with the old TV show “The Rockford Files”, starring the late James Garner. Jim Rockford’s father was always going up to Oxnard to look at a truck. 🙂

I watched that show but I didn’t remember the Oxnard connection. Oxnard is a terrible name for a very pretty place with lots of homes with boats on canals that connect with the sea. Thank you for your thoughtful comments Lavinia & happy weekend~
