On a recent visit to a nearby nature preserve, we saw not only leaping deer and singing swallows, we saw pelicans. Lots of pelicans. Flying, floating multiple pelicans.
So beautiful! We are heading to the lake in North Platte next week for Easter. The MIL says the pelicans are migrating through...hope they are still there! Love this picture!
What a find. I'm surprised you have them Val ... I don't recall them in Wisconsin. Maybe they're like Wisconsin senators who tend to hang out south of the border.
This image caught me off guard, for I didn't know pelicans could be found in Illinois. Where do they go for summer? Can you tell them they can visit the West Coast?

ReplyDeleteHi Val,
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful! We don't see pelicans around here. Have a great day!

That is a great shot!
ReplyDeleteNot to mention standing, preening pelicans.

Great shot! I, too, am surprised you have so many pelicans around.
ReplyDeleteAre those the Pelicans who's mouths hold more than their bellycans?
ReplyDeleteBig beautiful birds. Great picture.

ReplyDeleteA fine shot! What is the collective noun for a bunch of pelicans?
ReplyDeleteSeems odd to me too, I never see them here although brown ones are on the coast.
Great composition. I love how they are all grouped together.
ReplyDeleteA gaggle of geese, a what? of pelicans? Nicely shot with good exposure. They seem so social, clustered to gether like that.
ReplyDeleteI love pelicans too! As to what a group is called...I'd call them a party of pelicans as they always look like they're having a party!
