ABC Wednesdays - P for Pelican

Late this afternoon I changed my mind on my P post. I headed to North Glenelg to the Patawalonga where I was certain to get some photos of pelicans; they are always there.

Perched on the weir; waiting and watching.

Feed time! Even though the water didn't look overly clean, these birds certainly seemed to be finding plenty to eat.

These are great shots. I thought of pelicans, too. We have brown pelicans, here, but they were camera shy.

Great "P" post.
The first Pelican photo is stunning.
Sharp, great reflection, smooth water, terrific color and contrast.

Well done.
