Of course it was the coldest day of the year, 32 degrees, (0 Celsius), today. We don’t get all that many but this was one of them.

I have been waiting for the big White Pelicans to show up in the rice fields, today we found some. We have seen them fly over to the far marshes so it was only a matter of time. High water probably held them back.

We arrived out there a little late (did I mention cold?) and most likely they had been feeding for a while. I managed a decent amount of photographs before they all left.

I think I will be sticking around my local swamps for the next week or so. This weather is going to be here for a while yet. 😒😒.
