A few photos of Australian Pelicans which can be seen on the Swan River in Perth.
And this one on top of a street lamp on Canning Highway, not far from the Swan River.

Have a great weekend.
Cool pelicans
ReplyDeleteThanks Adam :)
DeleteWonderful captures. I really like pelicans- they seem like such characters.
ReplyDeleteI think they are quite funny William.
DeleteComo gostaria de fotografar pelicanos!
ReplyDeleteEles tambem existem por ai nao? Bom fim de semana Catarina.

Realmente sao Francisco. Obrigada e bom fim de semana para si tambem.
DeleteI wonder if the long beak ever gets in the bird’s way?
ReplyDeleteNot sure Marie, probably good to keep all the fish.
DeleteI've seen them here perched atop a pole or post. Spying for a nice easy to catch fish?
ReplyDeleteIn Canning Highway near the Swan river I quite often see them perched on the street lamps, probably trying to see the fish :)
DeleteThey are beautiful - from a distance. Quite big when they come after you. And quick, too...
ReplyDeleteNever had one that close to me, but I imagine they would be fierce :)
DeleteA wonderful bird is the pelican,
ReplyDeleteHis bill will hold more than his belican.
He can take in his beak
Food enough for a week,
But I'm damned if I see how the helican.

That's a funny poem Mae, thanks for sharing :)
DeleteHow clever that you found these birds and were able to capture their images.
ReplyDeleteThanks Elizabeth. They are quite common around the river in Perth :)
DeleteWhat a great photo's!
ReplyDeleteThanks Marianne.
DeleteLove that first shot of Percy Pelican x three 😀 Super shots Sami.
ReplyDeleteThanks Grace, the trio looks good :)
DeleteLove.
ReplyDeleteThanks Regine :)
Deleteadoro os pelicanos, acho que são majestosos e um dia em Santa Bárbara em 1996, almocei junto ao Pacífico, com um trio mesmo ao meu lado, que admiravam o horizonte.
ReplyDeleteBelas fotos:-)
Bom domingo!
Bom domingo!
