The California Brown Pelicans can be found right next to the sidewalks roosting in La Jolla. December to February the males display a beautiful reddish to Olive green gullet. I love going in the early mornings to see these beauties roosting along the cliff side. They are literally 4ft from the sidewalk. As long as you don't make sudden movements it loud noises, they will happily allow you to take their photos. 😊. While there, you will see their 'neighbors', the Cormorants, mingling amongst the tribe! The male Cormorants might be seen bringing supplies to the Mrs. to build their nest! Absolutely an awesome 👏🏻 site to behold to see so much wildlife only a few feet away! ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/8484/96b2f2fa-579c-4135-99ab-b7a392a74cf0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ## La Mesa Attractions Let Expedia help you to experience the best that La Mesa has to offer!
