American White Pelican

These Pelicans sometimes show up during migration seasons. I happened to be up in Phoenix and these 3 have made quite a stir at a local wetlands (reclaimed water facility).

They stayed way out when the light was good but came in closer later in the day (noonish-1pm).
Here are a few I liked.

What are you looking at??

great shots Jeremy- love the contrast. we always have these in the winter along the southern and western coast but this year they have showed up in numbers in the interior northern glades. interesting subjects for sure

Well captured Jeremy.

I'm glad you got to see and photograph these guys, Jeremy; we always look forward to their antics in summer.

What a nice looking group Jeremy! The last one could have been a head scratcher if I hadn't read the comment first!

Thanks Bob, John, Al and Sandy.

I wish we got them more here, but they eat so many fish I dont think our small ponds could support them and the native species.

Good for you, Jeremy! They are tough to expose properly.

Very nice shots Jeremy! That first one is hysterical!

Thanks Ian and Craig.

Love the first and last ones particularly excellent, the first one reminds me of the stance of a women - hands on hips etc

P.

Very nice set.
