A group of white pelicans were at Bosque while we were there. On this day there was only one. He put up with us for awhile before swimming off.

Very nice pose and head angle. Nice touch with the reflection. Liked the composition as well. TFS.

I like the soft pastel blue and pink as well as the detail and feel of that white plumage; it all works together very well.

Nice pose and comp Bonnie. While the whites are bright, they do look like they hold lots of detail. Good work! :)

One of my favorite birds, Bonnie, and you captured it beautifully with a nice look-back pose, excellent techs, and a pleasing partial reflection.
