west correspondent and chief photographer recently spent a day at Border Field State Park and sent along some incredible pictures of
the beach and its amazing waterfowl. Border Field contains beach and coastal habitat and is located on the Mexico-Untied States border within the
city limits of Imperial Beach in San Diego county. The park marks the southwesternmost point of
the contiguous United States and is also the southernmost point in the state of
California.

relatives flocked in from neighboring ponds but this this year’s festivities
weren’t anywhere near as entertaining as
those of years past. There were not as many participants, plus the
gathering took place in the pasture instead of on the bank. ??? The wide open space cut down on the usual faux
fighting and posturing that provides such stellar entertainment. Most found a shady spot and simply took a
rest. Oh, well, all involved appeared to
enjoy the day.
