A male Brown Pelican, wings down

It was always a miracle to me when a pelican would start to fly. Their wing muscles must be incredible. This one is a bit blurry but I like the image anyway. Jerry is home from the hospital, now to get over being in the hospital, ha!

Nice action shot! Glad Jerry is home again!

[Beryl Lloyd]

Great timing and shot of this pelican - he looks rather clumsy in flight - Pleased to hear Gerry is home from Hospital and he will be fully recovered very soon - - you must get your nurse' outfit out Lou Ann !xx

[Pat Knowles]

They look far too heavy to get off the ground but by going into this strange shape must be able to have lift off!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Nice sense of motion! I'm glad to hear Jerry is home and wish him a comfortable and speedy recovery!

[Karly]

So glad Jerry is home - tell him to rest, rest, rest! I like this shot too, Lou Ann. Pelicans are such fun looking guys!

I hope Jerry has a fast recovery! I didn't know he was in the hospital...no fun! Take good care, LouAnn.

The blur makes it a little impressionist, but quite lovely. Glad to hear Jerry is back home. I'm sure he'll recover from his hospitalitis very soon.
