My Favorite Bird of Birds
My Favorite Bird of Birds, The Pelican. When in the south, one must go see the brown pelicans. Not only are they amazing to watch catching fish and landing on water. They can have a comical look to them as well, especially when they look right at you.
I was down by the water and these to characters were following me as I walked along the dock. They are looking for a hand out in the way of free fish. Which I did not have.
So I actually laid down on the dock and put my camera right above the water as they inched closer to see what it was. Which enabled me to get this nice photo of them at their level. I just love photographing these guys.

Thank you very much 😊
These are all stunning pictures Sandra. I liked how they balance on that small and skinny piece of wood and pretty amazing the first photo and how you laid down to photograph them at eye level.
They are so fun to photograph, mainly because they are slower so sometimes you can get much closer to them.
I like how they are kind of studying you!
beautiful images.
Thank you very much 😊

Thank you very 😊
Everyone gets excited about Spoonbills… yet whenever there’s a Pelican around the same people run over and have huge smiles. I agree with you, the Brown Pelican is the winner.
Yes, but I will be just as excited if I ever get to see the spoonbill. 😊
They are great but I’m a flamingo man myself. 🤣😎🙃
Ah yes, the flamingo, they are pretty cool as well being a pinkish bird. 😊 I hope to see one some day
I have to go to the Zoo fo them but it;s worth it for me 🤣😎🙃
Those are Dive Bombers. I used to take my son to watch them in Merritt Park in Oakland. They performed, wheeling and careening and diving straight down into the bay! Dive Bombers. Thanks for the memories!
You are very welcome, yes I love watching them do that. Amazing how they do that. 😊
These are amazing shots of these curious birds, Sandra. How fun to watch them.

Yes, their wing spans are just amazing and they seem to fly so effortlessly.
