Our resident American White Pelican is content to hang around the pond beneath the waterfall on the edge of the golf course. He swims and fishes with Snowy Egrets, Great Egrets, Buffleheads, and (surprise!) Canada Geese. I walk by the pond every morning on my way to the Ferrari Pond Trail a mile and a half away, and seeing him there always brings a smile to my face. Yesterday morning he decided to move toward his egret buddies and I captured him as he came in for a landing, shaking the water off his tail.
