There has been a spectacular display of pelicans, loons and shearwaters
occurring in the nearshore surf between the Necanicum Estuary and Del
Rey Beach.  I spent about an hour and a half watching the thousands of
birds from the dune ridge next to the Del Rey parking lot.

We believe the fish they are catching is SURF SMELT (though we have not
seen them up close).
