A Penchant for Pelicans




I have a penchant for photographing pelicans, perhaps because 
they are so abundant in Florida.
Here a few of my favorite fellows,
along with a ditty my Dad always recited 
whenever he saw a pelican:

"Strange old bird, the pelican:
His beak holds more than his belly can.
Food for a week he can hold in his beak,
But I don't know how the heck-he-can!"

The first photo was taken last month on the canoe trip Jessi and I took.
The one on the roof was taken at Fernandina Beach on Mom's birthday 
a couple of years ago.
And the third was taken at Beverly Beach, near Palm Coast.
They're everywhere!
