Every time I see Brown Pelican start the hunt it’s special. The dive is even better if it involves more than one bird.
How can they possibly see a school of fish, underwater, from up there.
This dive involved two birds that did everything as a team, or at least very aware of each other.
They hit the water at the same moment. Considering the entire dive start to finish was under one second that’s pretty impressive.
The photograph above shows how close they were at the time thye broke the surface.
Wow. Those pelicans need to be part of the synchronized diving competition in the Summer Olympics later this year in Tokyo.
It’s like watching a show when the dive 🙂
Just amazing!
Two for the price of one ! Amazing captures, Ted!!
What an amazing series of action images, Ted!
Thanks. That’s why I can photo the Brown Pelican as long as they let me. Ellen and I spent a few hours catching that one day. Amazing birds. 🙂
