The National Aviary, located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Oct. 28, 2024. The bird paradise is the largest independent indoor nonprofit aviary in the U.S. It is also the country's largest aviary, and the only one accorded honorary "National" status by the U.S. Congress.

The first cruise since December 2019 due to Covid 19, we visited familiar places along the California coast for 7 days. Tried to capture some unusual pictures. Enjoy.
