This guys preening was interesting to watch and fun to shoot. It made for some wonderful poses. Your set captures the behaviour perfectly. Well done Bob.

Thanks Steve! They remind me of the funny faces that the burrowing owls make. Like you, I don’t find brown pelicans to be a particularly interesting bird to shoot, except for this season.

How wonderful and different these are !!! Great job Bobby.
Birdie
Thanks Birdie! The head throws are the most fun poses, but there were few and far between, and I failed to catch any clean ones i.e. without the tips of their beaks getting chopped off.

Terrific set, Bobby. Love how you captured these unusual poses.
Thanks Fred! I have a ton of these preening poses and I thought a set of these would be more fun to see than the normal/standard pelican poses.

Great shots, with great technicals, each one of them reminds me of modern art. Very well done Bobby.
I've seen lot of pelican pictures but yours are the most unique and artistic. They gave you good ops and you took full advantage. These are a treat to view.
Thanks Kim! Yes, they did put on quite a show for us that morning.
