Wild, Pelicans As Found Bird Animals
|
Viewed from the Embarcadero in San Francisco, these pelicans were
flapping there wings to fly. Usually lines of pelicans would glide past.
|
A brown pelican reflected itself as it flew over the water next to the cruise ship anchored in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
|
The interloper pelican spread its wings in preparation to fly a dozen feet to a slightly
different part of the wharf. That later position placed it nearer to a fisherman's bait.

Of a small group of pelicans on the stone breakwater, only two
were preening their feathers.

This pelican was found perched on a narrow board that was part of a
small dock just outside Bodega Bay. A hard rain had just ended.
|
Five pelicans flew near the water just after sunset but still
well before full darkness.
|
Two pelicans stood in almost identical poses on the breakwater
just off Pier 39 in San Francisco. This breakwater is just beyond
the Pier 39 sea lions.

Pelicans snoozed on the deck outside a restaurant's windows.

Pelicans congregate on the roof of a restaurant on the Monterey Wharf.

A brown pelican flew over the calm water of the bay in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.

Seen from the Embarcadero in San Francisco, these four pelicans
flew in line low to the water in search of fish.

In a pond near Westminster, four pelicans rested at the shallow end.
One hid its head, and one looked the other way.

The sun was just setting in warm Key West when this pelican
came into view.

A brown pelican in Monterey Harbor had just begun to flap its wings
to take off. This is just before that first flap, while the water
is still largely undisturbed.
