Like the way the light picks out the leading edge of the wings. - georgef8

Thanks for the comments. I got lucky with this shot. This pelican was at the far bank of a slough, too far to shoot, but I stopped there to take the Great Blue Heron shot in Exhibition. Then the pelican came flying towards me. I even had to zoom out to get a second shot. --Garrett

I've been trying to make pictures of the brown pelicans that frequent my area for months ad have not captured anything nearly as good as this. Nice work.

Nice, wonderful and warm evening light! It is obvious that you've shot birds before. --Olaf
