I was the pelican stalker in Surf City for a few nights last week. Fisherman would dump their bait overboard before taking their boats out of the water, and the pelicans were making the most of a free and easy meal. They put on quite a performance. Now and again, some cormorants would come in for a landing and bob around the big guys, who could not be bothered with the birds that didn't meet the height requirement on that ride.

now this is a great shot.
Beautifully captured!
Skywatch, have a nice weekend!
Whoa! Great timing and a fantastic capture.
Pelicans are so ungainly and funny looking when perched on something but they are such graceful fliers and gliders.
Beautiful capture! Happy sky watching.

Gorgeouw, the pelican banking to come in for a landing.
This capture makes the bird look prehistoric, a fun shot.
