    Default White Pelican

    In some areas it is a common bird but here in Ontario it is a rarity. (Vagrant)
    Personally I have never seen one in Ontario before, only in Florida during winter.
    This individual was found in Burlington Bay and I happened to have spotted it while driving by. It looks like he is still in breeding plumage.
    Thanks for looking.

    Karl....beautiful image! Love the whites with the still great feather detail.....nice wing position as well. You might consider adding just a bit of canvas at the top and use content aware to add canvas to the left hand side to try to get the pelican out of center....just a thought! Love it!

    Out of center would be good. It would improve what is already a sweet image. Great exposure and details.

    Good flying posture Karl, and overall well exposed too. Pops nicely from the BG.
