Pelicans

[Neilmac50]

Went for a meal at a restaurant alongside the river Berg in Velsddrif, hanging around outside for any freebies was this little chap.Never seen one so up close before and he looked such a comical chap.





Then he brought a friend along.

They prove to be just as opportunistic as you were Neil! Well done…

Nicely done, cast shadow really makes the first, I would have utilized more of the reflections in the third as part of the composition.

These sure are different to the pelicans I am familiar with. The markings on the beak are amazing. Good captures, Neil, sharp and good Dof.

Awww...I am going to go birding next week and pelicans will be a-plenty where I am going. Maybe I can catch something as comical as these. Great shots...

#1 is the pick of the litter for me. It's got one foot on top of the other. Hope it trip over them. Stand tall but cast a small shadow.

Super shots, the colours in the beaks are very nice

This is what I was about to say.

With shots of that quality, you could donate them to your external hard drive , but is that the best use?
