I have no way of knowing, or counting, how many White Pelicans we watched. Thousands for sure.
The big birds kept coming in to the marshes to start their morning feeding. Flocks like this continued for a long time.
After a while we stopped photographing the formations over head. Still, it was very impressive how the flew in a ‘V’, turning and landing so tight together.
If we had been at this spot right at dawn there would be no Pelican shots. The sun was just up when they all came in. They did move on after a few hours.
Things change so fast we caught scenes like this, and classic bird butts leaving in other places.
They are perfect in their flight! Fantastic captures and so beautifully framed.
Thank you 😊, Many groups like this came into the marshes. I didn’t know which to photo / publish first LOL
That scene must make the fish shudder ha! Always like their coordinated flights, especially the shimmer that results as they alter their angle to the sun. Thanks for sharing.
