Ground squirrels are abundant
and easy to see in California, especially at Huntington Beach wetlands. You'll
notice a network of tunnels near the water line that extends to the parking
lot. In the balance of nature, humans have fed these little critters,
causing them to frequent the parking lot for food. If you can refrain from
feeding these animals, you will help the environment and ecosystem of this
sensitive region.
The ground squirrels provide great entertainment
with their busy activities so close to humans. Except for pigeons and
seagulls, most other rodents, animals and water fowl at the Huntington Beach
Ecological Reserve are not quite as sociable.
Get your camera out and
take photos of the variety of animal and bird life at this 3-D wonderland.
Birds fly overhead, broadcasting sounds that bounce off the wall buffer of
the coastal Seacliff bluffs, thus creating an experience that's unique and
very exciting. .
