I'll Be Leaving Soon

I imagine the pelicans will be leaving for wherever it is the spend the rest of the year until next December/January. Don't think they like out Arkansas summers - not that I blame them.

The brown pelicans in Padre Island in Texas never leave, it’s super hot there in the summer. Of course the fishing boats are the reason they stay, they hover around the men cleaning the fish. This is a wonderful b&w image.

Some gather in parts of Florida -- Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge for one. We also saw a few on our trip - in Myakka River State Park in Sarasota and in a few other Sarasota locations.
