Thanks very much Vicky, Carol, Beverly, Anne, Golda, Steve, and Marsha for all your wonderful comments. I hear ya Marsha about there landings, they just don't do very well lol.. Hey Steve, they do look like a small pterodactyls. Vicky, this one was the leader of a line of five or so. Thanks again everyone for your comments :-)

Great photo of the pelican. I used to love watching them in California. They glide so gracefully, but when they land in the water it looks like a crash landing. Lots of fun to watch.

Great picture, bubbalin - I had not noticed before what a sharp head the pelican has!! And this one seems to just glide through the air. I am so glad I got to see it. thanks.

Terrific image, Alan. I love watching them appear to glide through the sky single file! Excellent detail here. Vicki
