pelicans

[Dave Slaughter]

This post is for the many Florida members of this forum, who are currently sweltering in the summer heat as they watch the brown pelicans around the wharves. I thought you might enjoy seeing pelicans in a different environment.

Hi Dave

These birds are down here for the winter Love seeing them at home !!! Would make it more into a pano You would still have the mountain bg which really adds to the image. While following the birds look for times with no overlap for making the image !!!
