A Pelican Visits the Lagoon 5

After his bath the Pelican decided to dry off on a small patch of land that is normally inhabited by the local Cormorant crew. In the background you can see one of the "locals" giving the newcomer an earful.

Another wonderful capture in this series. A terrific action shot with a interesting pose and what looks like an a. confrontation or interaction. As always, stellar detail and clarity in this well timed capture. VV++
