INCOMING!!! Look Out 😉 As the one brown pelican checks its backside to get his tail feathers out of the way for the two diving behind him. Whew, close call.

Happy New Years Eve,

We went for a walk along the beach on a windy day and there were dozens of brown pelicans diving all in one area, but when I looked closer I noticed they appeared to be following some dolphins. As the dolphins moved around the pelicans were not to far behind. A short video below will show this amazing sight we saw.

I mentioned before about how the brown pelicans turn ever so slightly to the left to protect their esophagus. You will see this in the video below.

  9. This is awesome! I have seen a large group of brown pelicans cruising by, but never more than a couple diving once in a while. Your video reminds me of the feeding frenzy I’ve seen with dolphins and seagulls, usually from the dolphin pod stirring up the school of fish into a giant ball. Thanks for sharing!

    1. That is what I was wondering if the dolphins were doing that. It makes sense. Amazing to see so many diving so close to each other. 😊

  10. Amazing video. Following your blog has truly enriched my life. All the very best to you in 2022. Chris

    1. Thank you very much Chris, I appreciate hearing that and I wish you a wonderful new year full of good health, love, smiles and laughter.
