Birds -- Monterey Bay, September 2014

We stayed at a friend's house in Monterey Dunes Colony south of Moss Landing on Monterey Bay September 10-14, and I photographed birds on the beach in front of us, at Moss Landing Harbor, and at Point Pinos. The birds were particularly active, and here are some of the pictures I took.
