Kakkoi you are absolutely correct. I have been told that bolsa chica means little bag before, and each time I try to reconcile the accurately translated name with the wetland area in southern California I catch myself wondering: "a little bag of what"?
I picked up a dead bird of the beach at Bolsa Chica last Monday, but no picture... sorry
ReplyDelete"Bolsa" is Spanish for "Bag".
ReplyDeleteI sometimes tell people that "Bolsa Chica" means "Bag Lady".
Well, "Bolsa Chica" means actually "Little Bag" or "Small Bag". In spanish, "chica" doesn´t mean just "girl" or "chico" means "boy", but small.
