thanks! these two didn't seem to be bothered by my walking close to them - it was a great day to be a pelican and a human!

What a great shot. I love the different colors of blue from the water to the sky. It looks like a great day to be a pelican!

This is an awesome photo. Being north during the winter makes me really wish I was right there with those birds. Thanks for posting.
