Loreto Sunrise

After four days in a row of scuba diving we decided to take a day off. Soon after we got up I looked outside and noticed orange clouds so we grabbed cameras and headed for the shore (a block from the apartment we're renting). Because it faces east, Loreto doesn't see the sunset, but it makes up for it with the sunrises.

I spotted the juvenile heron again and took a few more photos:

There was also a giant egret (aka great white heron) fishing off the dock. It had to bend right over to reach the fish in the water but it seemed quite successful.

Someone walked by and it flew over to the next dock. I managed to catch it just as it landed.

There were reflections, of course:

Loreto is pretty in the morning light.

Maybe this seagull is thinking the same thing.
