Nice shots. Pelicans are one of my favorites to shoot.


Canon 7d 100-400 mm zoom.

This is a better shot than the other one I think. Light is better and the bird is sharper. Very good shot.

They're easier than faster birds, prettier than some too. Thanks Joe

Yeah, thanks Levina. I only noticed it after I posted the first one.

Thanks Bret. The Pelicans visit the LSU lakes in Baton Rouge, LA on their way to points South. There must be several hundred now. I think they'll be gone in a couple of weeks.

Good shot. Several hundred must be an amazing sight. I've only ever seen one!

I only had my 120-300 with me that day, but here's an idea of the numbers of birds visiting the lakes.
