Mazatlan - The Mangrove Swamp

Tour Guide Hernando explains the swamp.

Tide was nearly at its low point.

Birds that I saw that I could (more-or-less) identify:

• Magnificent Frigatebird;
• Great Egret;
• Little Blue Heron;
• Brown Pelican;
• Yellow-Crowned Night Heron;
• White Ibis;
• Osprey;
• American Oystercatcher;
• Whimbrel;
• Turkey Vulture;
• plus a variety of Sandpipers.
