Sad story - The locals and tourists here is Virginia Beach have been feeding the pelicans this winter, they have been so used to being fed that didn't fly south this year and some died on the few very cold nights we had here. It was on the news a lot telling people to stop feeding them. Sad stuff.
This is a truly wild pelican. He was asleep when I first got to the park. He is stalking a fisherman just off to the right. They both flew off for a soak in the river after I took these pictures.
These are great! My only little bit of CC is that it looks like the 3rd shot (with the boats in the background) could use a bit of straightening. Ahhh...to be someplace warm with beaches right now... lol
I am a 34 y/o single woman looking for Mr. Right (if he is out there). I am the proud mommy to 2 Dalmatians. My babies. I am a HUGE Disney fan and that is one of the great things about living close to His Kingdom. In the summer of 2006 I went to England and fell in Love with the country. Well I went back to England and decided I needed to add Scotland to the trip. What a great place.
