Thousands of small fish were coming up on the beach in Encanto last evening at high tide, burrowing in the sand for a few seconds, then returning to sea. Laying eggs my guess maybe????

Their a type of Grunion that are afraid to come out in the dark.

Yes, I guess my son was right. I thought you would only see them with a flashlight.

On the Pacific side they only spawn at night, but over here in this part of Mexico they've heard it's not safe after dark:mrgreen:.
