I Need a Scratch DSC_7867

I was without my camera for several hours today as the sensor needed cleaning. After picking it up we headed into Mandurah where we came across several pelicans.

What great timing. I've taken many shots from this location, and never been lucky enough to get them in action l like this. FAV

@deborah63 Thanks Debbie, there were 6 or 7 there this afternoon. I got some great shots and had trouble deciding which one to post :)

@hermann Thanks Sally, they were being quite active while I was watching them. It was lovely to see :)

@yeshanghai @leestevo Thank you. They are fun to photograph.

It must be so hard for them to reach some places with those huge beaks. Great capture and timing.

@beachdog Thanks Barb, I can't believe the flexibility they have in their necks.
