Do not steal my fish again!!

Charlie has warned Pauly several times not to steal his fish but he didn't listen. This happened just before Pauly flew off and I caught him landing in yesterday's panning shot. Charlie was actually holding his head underwater for a moment. It could have been real ugly!

Fabulous capture!!! Pelicans are such amazing birds - I've never seen them having a fight like this before ;) FAV

[Dione Giorgio]

Definitely a FAV. Wow, wow, wow what a great shot and scene.

[Sue Wilde]

[Andrew S]

That's a real pelican dust up! I'm with Sam, I have never seen them be so aggressive towards each other..

[Sheralee S]

@gigiflower @tomtom We're in the wilds here, it's every man for himself ;-)

[Sarah White]

Wow, brilliant shot! I also love the other bird watching in the background.

[alia_801]

Great capture of the pelican action!

[Lara]

Wow It looks like they might need a referee to call time.

[Rachel]

Thanks for your comment on my pelicans. These two are really having a dust up. I have never seen them go for each other on the water before - but on land where there is fish involved it is a different story! Great shot.

[bkb in the city]

Wow, amazing capture! Fav!

[Taffy]

What an amazing action shot!!

[MaryBeth Dailey]

What an action shot! are you sure they are not doing a mating dance? ;0) I like that one in the background...clueless to the violence around him

[Lisa Pouncy]

Perfect timing. Fab shot xx

[Graham Thresher]

A fabulous bit of timing. Great shot. Fav.

[Poppo Livy]

Fantastic action capture.

[Leah]

Wow!!! Fantastic action shot!!! Can't believe you actually caught this squabble on camera!!! Love the water cascading over the rocks!!! Wonderful capture!!! FAV!

[Maggie]

This has got to be a winning wildlife shot. Congratulations on such an amazing capture. I like the way the heron/egret in the background seems to be keeping a wary eye on proceedings. Huge FAV.

[Sheralee S]

@888rachel @espyetta I'm not really sure MaryBeth but they sit on the rocks waiting for the fish to come by. I think he actually caught a fish. The shot before shows one guy going for the fish in the water and then the big mean guy went for him. The next shot shows how he is being held under the water even more than this. He did get away though :)

[Sheralee S]

@snaphappi @vega Thanks for those lovely compliments Maggie and Vega!!

[Tara]

This is awesome Sheralee! Great timing and story :)

[Michelle]

Amazing shot!

[e.gad]

ha ha ha! great capture. fav!!

[Simply Amanda]

This is great and a super six word story!!

[Laur]

Phenomenal! It's the quality that I think national geographic would be interested in

[Julie Ann]

Holy smokes. That's amazing. Did you take a bunch of shots, or shoot for a certain moment? Great story.

[Laur]

Re gettin orig profile back...I may have come across as whiney unfortunately cuz i was pleading fervently. Regarding emailing Ross

[Catherine W.]

Yikes!!! So cool you caught this action!!!

[Sheralee S]

@creativeaddict Haha, I'm sure you didn't! I know Arefin lost his account early on and couldn't retrieve it too, there must be a glitch in the system somehow.
Thanks for your great comment BTW!

[Laur]

@bella_ss U r welcome. I'm dead serious. I think bit may b a once in a lifetime shot, too.

[Denise (lyndemc)]

What a phenomenal capture! I had no idea pelicans behaved like this. Apparently Pauly pushed his luck just a little too far and got roughed up for his thieving ways. Again, fantastic picture!

[Sheralee S]

@splishsplash Thanks Julie Ann. I was just taking single shots but when I saw these guys at it I took a few more.

[Sheralee S]

@lyndemc Haha, that Pauly... he just never learns :)

[Sandy]

Fabulous action shot with a great caption.

[Suse♡]

Lol, this is so fun with the title!

[Tracey]

Wow this is an amazing shot perfect timing love it fav

[Darinka]

fabulous wild life capture!fav

[Davie]

Brilliant capture...right time, right place...excellent.

[Phil]

Brilliant capture and the title is spot-on too! Excellent

[Rach_who]

Someone is obviously not very happy

[Milanie]

This is so neat!! I just love the story you've shown us. And the colors and lighting make this photo just shine.

[Tabbycat]

Haha! I love that the bystander seems entirely unconcerned!

[Sheralee S]

@tabbycat Haha, he's used to their antics :)

[Nicole Campbell]

I wonder if they are siblings! It is something my two would do, actually I should say my four as the cat and dog do this together all the time

[Sheralee S]

@nicolecampbell You could be right Nicole :)
