The Cove in Palos Verdes Peninsula, CA

Only people who want to walk down the trail to the beach go to The /cove.  So that means there are very few people on the beach at the cove, usually surfers and some hikers.  So it's a great location to see birds. 

These little flycatchers of the southwest are usually found near water, and that's where I found them by the shore.  They don't let you get very close, so I had to crop these photos quite a bit.
