Brown Pelican
Why Did the Robber Take a Shower?
He wanted to make a clean getaway.
Interesting Fact: While the Brown Pelican is draining the water from its bill after a dive, gulls often try to steal the fish right out of its pouch—sometimes while perching on the pelican’s head. Pelicans themselves are not above stealing fish, as they follow fishing boats and hang around piers for handouts. ( https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Brown_Pelican )
My favorite bird! I truly enjoy watching these guys diving into the water to catch their meals.Great photo! Thanks for the share.
I haven’t come across one diving yet, I would love to see that and capture it one day. Thank you very much for stopping by and Happy Blogging! 🙂
It is fun capturing a diving sequence. I was fortunate enough to get some good shots at Naples, Florida some time ago.
That’s awesome, it have to be quite a spectacular. 😉👍
