Just a couple of Pelicans


I just love watching these clowns---we never grow tired of their continual show







After the rain this morning, it is a beautiful day

The last one is my favorite. Glad to hear that my plants had a little water this morning. It is just now starting to sprinkle over on this side.



What we see depends mainly on what we look for.

Thanks---John took that last one. It was much wider, but I cropped it and really liked it this way. I like the contrast in the colors.

Yes Laurie, all the plants in your yard were watered quite well. And, the first yellow wildflower appeared today.

Great photos, Thanks. Many years ago I was diving at Puertocitos and a pelican landed near me and "attacked" me. He would not stop even when I splashed water at him. Finally I grabbed his neck and pulled his head underwater and then released my hold. He stopped the attack.

John gets the credit for number 3---my only part was the cropping and processing. I really love the way he got the pelican with the green background.

I use a Canon 40D and John is using A Canon RebelXT ---- I have the more expensive camera because I think I deserve it. :biggrin::biggrin:

Thanks for the nice comments.

Diana
