\"All<\/a>

All lined up in a row <\/p><\/div>\n

Another beautiful day in Chuburn\u00e1<\/span>, Mexico.\u00a0 Our morning walk took us about two hours, most of it out in the water at a good distance from the shore.\u00a0 Walking out further from the shore, the water actually gets quite shallow in spots.\u00a0 I had no worries about walking out quite some distance carrying the camera.<\/p>\n

\"dsc02097\"<\/a>It was a perfect location to shoot a number of photos featuring birds.\u00a0 Of course, the most common birds were seagulls and pelicans.\u00a0 Also joining the crowd were a few cormorants,<\/p>\n

A black bird that had a wingspan and spread out tail that reminded me of a dove. <\/p><\/div>\n

sandpipers and an interesting looking black bird.<\/p>\n

If I had my bird book handy, I could likely find out exactly what kind of bird it was.\u00a0 For now, it isn’t all that important.\u00a0 It was enough to get the photo and enjoy the moment.<\/p>\n

In the afternoon, we ended up travelling to Progreso with Roger and Marianna, our neigbours from Nanaimo, for groceries, something that was an unplanned event.\u00a0 It was an enjoyable time as we stopped on the way back for a small lunch at a local outdoor restaurant in the village of Chelem.<\/div>\n
Now, it is time to relax and enjoy the rest of the day without plans for anything else other than reading, checking e-mail and writing this blog.\u00a0 \u00a1<\/span>Hasta ma\u00f1<\/span>ana!<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
