    What excellent captures - were you flying formation with the critter?

    Thank you, Jim. This pic should have been the last in the series in my other post of the pelican. (The post allowed me only five pix.) I was on the bank, about two feet above the water. After the pelican became airborne he didn't climb, but flew low toward me only veering off when close to me. I think he was trying to startle me in revenge for my being so persistent. Rich

    Awesome shot. I really like this one.

    With respect to (5) images in your post you can hit the [+Reply to Thread] button and reply to your first post with up to 5 more images and repeat if necessary. Just a friendly reminder, however, to remember your viewers. If you go too image heavy people will get bored quickly and move on

    Now I have to go find that other thread to see if I like the first 5 as much as I like this one.
