That's quite a nest! Over here, I've only seen their nests on pre-built platforms or on some structure.

Fantastic 3D view of the osprey in it's beautiful environment, Fishy! It really shows how large a nest they can build.

Thank you very much, fotoi.

That is a very nice frame filling shot of the White Pelican -- I really like the low angle view -- Mike..!

I really appreciate your constructive, thoughtful compliment, Rich. Thank you.

Hi Mike...

Wonderful photograph of a beautiful bird.

Whenever I see a Pelican, I'm always reminded of the limerick about pelicans:

"A wonderful bird is the Pelican.
His beak can hold more than his belly can."

Your photograph proves the point.

Tom

What a terrific compliment, Tom! It is truly appreciated. I will have to try to remember the clever, humorous limerick about pelicans. :mrgreen:

Wonderful capture of that huge Bird Mike.

Thank you so very much, Paul! It's amazing just how huge and heavy they actually are. I never could understand how they can become airborne.:-)

steveb108 wrote in post #19392972 (external link)
Excellent portrait of the White Pelican, Mike!

Many thanks, Steve...much appreciated compliment.
