I'm not great at bird identification. I have a guidebook but I always forget to bring it with me. This guy was sitting on top of the rocks in the middle of Little Lameshur Bay.

Hey, you have to pick your specialty! Fish are more interesting than birds.

I live in San Juan Capistrano, famous for the yearly return of the Swallows. When those birds are in town, we call the place "San Juan Crapistaino"... talk about messy!
Here's another pearly eyed thrasher.
