A mature Brown Pelican launches from a jetty in Grand Isle, LA preparing to dive into the water to snatch a fish. We watched this Pelican from a fishing pier as it perched on the riprap jetty watching the water for fish. Its head turned from left to right to left in its effort to spot its next meal. More often than not, it emerged with a full pouch, the fish still wriggling inside. It was a great way to end the day, watching Louisiana’s State Bird in action.
Great shot Carol. You always seem to be at the right place at the right time.
