A few Pelicans

Here's a couple of pelicans I captured yesterday. I was suprised at how large they are.




Thanks for looking.

looks like you caught the American White Pelican... it's one of the largest birds in North America. Good job.

Wow nice one, especially like the first pic.

All my pictures of the white pelicans are little specs of white in a sea of blue.

It's nice to see nice clear and sharp close ups of them!

Thanks All. I missed getting these guys last year. These were all taken with Canon's unimpressive 75-300 USM lens. I'm guessing that's why one a couple of my shots came out(unpredicatbility).

Nice shots. clapI like the first one as well. The water in the second one looks almost too blue.

Job well done. Very nice captures. I would like to get some pics of this variation of pelican. I've only seen the brown version in this area.

Excellent shots and you handled a tough exposure well. I'm jealous of your access to white pelicans, we only get the browns down here normally.
