Spotted these gorgeous Pelicans on my way home from a day's outing with Canadian visitors yesterday. My nickname for these is B52s - because, in the air they have a heavy undercarriage and huge wingspans - yet for all that, they glide so gracefully through the skies. Love 'em !
With grateful thanks to the respective hosts, I'm joining in the fun at

What a lovely sight. Pelicans always look like they're smiling.
Great photos. They are one of my favourite birds.

This Canadian has always loved pelicans. My husband had to drag me away from pelican-watching when we visited Florida. But your pelicans seem to be somewhat larger than the ones we've seen. I love the B52 nickname!

They really are great birds - even though I have heaps of pictures of them, still take more!
