Brown Pelican Squadron

Not to be confused with "Black Sheep Squadron"!

We went to "Natural Bridges State Park" in Santa Cruz, Ca on 07-12-07. I couldn't get to the beach, so I shot a few photos of the kids and other things as I stayed in the car. Here's a squadron of Brown Pelicans...

Cool shot of a rare pelican, well if you do not frequent the coasts. It might be a tad oversharpened. I have that almost exact same shot of four in flight as well.

I don't get to the coast very often, although my wife was born in Santa Cruz, Ca. I usually go to Yosemite!

Thanks...
