PELICAN AT KIRK POND

Often, when I need to go to the store, I will go on to the north side of Fern Ridge Lake to see if there are any birds there. In the last couple months I have watched for a group of White Pelicans that hang out in Kirk Park. This one was posing for me on a lot in the middle of the pond, so I felt obligated to take some shots of it. I liked the light and color.
