I love brown pelicans, this little squadron was cruising Point Lobos, California. First shot is 3 adult males, a female and a juvenile male.

They are my favorite birds too. It's like looking at dinosaurs!
 
AWESOME PICS!!!

Brown Pelicans and the Wild Lime Green Parakeets that were prevelent in flocks...on Treasure Island, Florida, were both my favorite birds when matt and I lived in Florida!

Since moving up here, I have replaced them with American Bald eagle, the Cedar/Bohemian Waxwing and the Pileated Woodpecker in a close third.... :D

How about Puffins, they are really pretty neat. You should be able to find some up there along the shoreline. They look like little tuxedoed old guys with really colorful noses.:lol:

Isn't it a thrill to see Bald Eagles? If you want to really see them go here........ over 3,000 show up to feast on dying Salmon each year.

Thank you, that is Point Lobos near Carmel and Mount Shasta.
 
you ever notice pelicans aint clumsy

Definitely not in the air, they have pin point accuracy going into the water. Beautiful flyers, great looking wings.
