Default Pelicans
I recently took a trip to Panama City Florida to pick my wife up who was helping out her family. While I was there we spent the day at the lake by the damn. Ocean on one side and fresh water on the other. I kept seeing a Pelican flying around so i grabbed my camera and walked over to the ocean side where I discovered a bunch of pelicans and this is the result. Nikon D40, Nikor 70 X 300 Manuel focus
It was an awesome day!!

They posed real good for you redneck. No 4's the one for me though. I love to see birds in flight. Well captured. PAUL
