Historia
Existe otra población (La Redondilla), abandonada, a poca distancia. Se especula que dicha población se trasladó a terrenos de menor altitud y más fértiles cuando desaparece el peligro musulmán. Según una leyenda, dos pastores de La Garganta hallan una imagen de la Virgen y reciben el encargo de construir un templo: es la Virgen del Castañar, patrona de Béjar. La Garganta perteneció a laComunidad de Villa y Tierra de Béjar, y por esto antiguamente la localidad se llamaba Garganta de Béjar. Se incorporó a Extremadura en la última división provincial.

My east coast friends don't believe me when I tell them about the high price of gas in California. Soon these prices will be everywhere, but for some reason the fossil fuel industry seems to have a bone to pick with good ol' CA. - Uploaded with a demo version of FlickrExport 2.
Pelican Flock. Point Lobos State Reserve, California. July 16, 2012. © Copyright 2012 G Dan Mitchell - all rights reserved.
A high key rendering of a photograph of a flock of pelicans above the Point Lobos State Reserve.
I photograph birds sometimes - more these days than at some times in the past - but they are generally not my main passion in photography, with a few exceptions. The first of those, however, is photographing pelicans along the Pacific Ocean coast of California where these big, magnificent birds seem to stand apart from the other birds of the area. They are bigger, they often coast rather than flapping wings quickly, when seen they are most often simply passing by on their way to and from some unknown other place, and they overall seem to me to have an almost prehistoric aspect.
Most often when I photograph them I go to some place where I think they will pass and I wait. Places where a rocky peninsula extends a bit into the ocean can be likely spots, as are the top edges of certain bluffs above cliffs, where they seem to float past on updrafts from onshore winds. Often as I wait and watch for them I see other birds and I may photograph them, but I'm always watching in the further distance for the groups of pelicans, usually strung out in lines of a few birds to, sometimes, many - and as soon as I spot them the other birds are forgotten as I watch the pelicans approach. I understand that this year the California pelicans are stressed by some sort of environmental change and many have died and others seem undernourished. This may partly explain why I saw so few on this July visit to Point Lobos, mostly only stray groups of two or three that were separated widely from one another. But late in the day a huge flock came from the south and, surprisingly, rather than floating past quickly they moved slightly inland, where I think they found a thermal, and spent several minutes coasting in circles as they rose higher.
