Riverside on Saturday

Although these photographs may imply it is easy to see the young ones, it isn't.  They're rarely active and except for feedings which occur about every two hours are hard to see.  Today only two eyasses were visible at any one time.  I went through my photographs from Thursday and still think there are three.  As they get bigger, this will become easier to figure out.
