La Flora
The Pitaya flower is beautiful but only lasts for a few hours in the early morning and only for a few days. We were lucky enough to time in right, as did a few honey bees.
Not Just fish
Fishing and paddling take up most of our time here in Baja but we sometimes do get out with friends on a sailing trip or two (fishing still involved) or just enjoy the company of fellow campers on the beach.
A table of a type of Red Snapper...good eatn'
Dorado, Ken has caught about 9 this season. They are a beautiful fish that change colour as you bring them in. This is the same fish as...
this one!
Honeymoon bay on Dansante Island. Doug and Mary's sailboat looks like a dream to us as it sits waiting for our return from a hike. A glass of cold wine also awaits.
Iron Mike shows off his Wahoo (sp?) he caught while out fishing with Ken.
A sea lion takes a nap while paddle by him on our trip around Dansante.

And the gang from the beach is there is celebrate with a bomb fire and wienies.
Cardinals are a beautiful bird but this one in particular keeps taking a run at our window, not realising that it is it's own reflection it is seeing.
Atila and Friends
There seems to be one dominant male hummingbird that has picked our feeder as it's own, chasing away others whenever he can. At times our feeder is so busy, with upward of 15 to 20 birds at a time, he may find it impossible to keep it under his watchful eye.
Birds are plentiful in the shrub behind and around our camp, a bird book would be a definite asset!
Check out our friendly hummingbirds, click on this link.
Attila is very photogenic, don't you think?
He will pose endlessly.
He also has a few female friends around.
One in particular likes his profile.
And many of his friends are tame enough to land on my hand to feed!
