Pelicans at Lockport

Posted in Activities, birds, canada, flight, lockport, Manitoba, Nature, pictures, Wildlife

Pelicans are so much fun to watch. Sometimes they are a bit of a challenge to photograph, but I just keep snapping and usually end up with some fairly good photos.

One thing I noticed today is the way they fish together. Each bird in the group dives at the same time and comes back up at the same time.

Many of the photos are cropped by WordPress to fit into the space, but if you click on one and scroll through them, you will see the entire photo.

It was a nice morning. I had breakfast at the Red Top (my usual Saturday morning breakfast) and then headed out to Lockport. The Pelicans and one of the Sea Gulls were cooperative and I returned home before it got too hot.
