Maybe they look brown from a distance in winter.
But up close in summer the colors can be remarkably varied- and beautiful.

Thanks Conrad, Ken, Tam, Brian, Birdie, Rick, Tim and Kenny.
I'd always seen brown pelicans flying and diving from a distance- and usually with a bright sky background- and usually NOT in mating feathers.
This guy was wild- but was hanging out on the edge of a marine park. Because he was habituated to people I was able to get quite close- and my 400mm brought him in tight.
The colors amazed me.

Sweet one Charlie...how do you store your slides...they really have retained all the vividness of when they came out of that yellow box.

Excellent portrait Charlie.
BP's are plentiful at Bolsa Chica and one of my favorite subjects.

Thanks David, Chris, Bee, Eric, Kirk and Herb.
I have always used a complex way of protecting my old Kodachrome slides: keep them in their yellow boxes and throw them in the closet .
Sounds silly, perhaps- but unless water leaks into them and interesting mold grows on them - the boxes are chemically free and the closet is dark, dry and relatively cool.
My main problem is finding anything in the closet 30 years later after changing residences a dozen times .
