"Just thousands of pelicans all over," wildlife photographer Jim Grant told NBC San Diego. "You couldn't even see the sand."
''These habitats are home to an array of creatures including abalone, yellowtail, brown pelicans, and California sea lions,'' according to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife.
Pelicans eat a diet of primarily small fish they can scoop up in their cupped beaks by "plunge diving," according to Oceana.
According to CBS 8, California is used to seeing an influx of pelicans in La Jolla in the spring and early summer. However, in 2022, locals were noticing more than in years past.
