Photo of a Black Skimmer (Rynchops niger)
Don Hill, the photographer behind the 2007 Coronado Calendar, recommended a few spots in San Diego for me to see fall seabirds. Inspired by Don’s great shots I drove down to take a look and was pleasantly surprised by all the bird life in the bay. This black skimmer (Rynchops niger) was photographed in the San Diego Bay. Very cool birds, the way they skim.
