The seagulls were also waiting for a feed!
Apparently this was started by a local fisherman cleaning his catch and has been going on for 40 years. Now local volunteers maintain the tradition. I have always wondered why we never see pelican chicks. It seems they breed on offshore islands to be safe from predators. Pelicans are huge birds but they have lots of air pockets inside their bodies and hollow bones, which all enables them to fly long distances. Who knew?

After breakfast, it was time for a little excursion. I drove on the coastal road south to Red Bluff with spectacular views:

ReplyDeleteI was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
ReplyDeleteliver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
