I saw these at Pismo Beach a couple of weeks ago. It was very overcast and dark.

That's a GREAT find kp!
Always very touching to see Mom/kid interactions such as these and you got very nice captures of the happening.

My girlfriend shot those same fledglings at the Monarch Butterfly area.

I really can't take credit for the find. We drove there from Biloxi to see my son at Vandenburg AFB. We were walking around the trail when someone told me about the nest. Like Six Fifty B wrote, they were on the Monarch Butterfly trail. I really feel privileged to see these little guys doing what they do.
