American White Pelicans

We just got back from a two-day cruise up to the north, Canadian waters, end of our lake. We see the odd pelican on our end occasionally, but for some reason the crew likes to hang out further north, about 20-25 miles or so. I love these guys.

Wow those white pelicans are just beautiful! Fantastic captures of these guys. I rarely see the white ones.

I don't get to see pelicans very often. These are really nice Al.

Beautiful shots Al. You could have said you were on Sanibel!

Nice shots...think the 2nd one is exceptional.

Wow great shots.

Beautiful shots. The background sets them off nicely.

Very cool.

Thank you kindly, everyone; I appreciate your comments.

Very nice, Al. I see birds here that I yearn for, but then I see this post and Jeremy's of the tri-colored, and I'm reminded I have some pluses, too. Can't have it all but can't stop us of wanting it sometimes

Beautiful!! We have a flock that winters here at the lake but they make their roost on a little island that is not very accessible.....

Love both shots.

Very nice Al. Good to see these as I've only ever seen the occasional Pelican in a zoo.

Thank you all very much; we're fortunate to have them in our neighborhood.
