Default Last of these for a while, Pelicans & something?

Stopped by the lake today to see what was available, here is what I found.

Pelican 1

Pelican 4

Pelican 3

and to continue what pjflan7 started, here is a little guy that always showed his rear end.

Take a picture of my tail

Nice shots! If you need help with Bird ID, I can highly recommend sending it to the Bird Identification Help Group on Flickr. Those guys are FAST. Looks like a killdeer to me, but I soooo suck at shore bird ID, it's not even funny.

They are great shots. I'm so jealous, I never seem to have any luck with birds.

Nice set of shots. I like the 2nd one because it is a bit different having the wings down.
