Pelicans and People

Pelican taking flight!

Here you can see two children in the water and the five pelicans fishing close to them.

Neither is afraid of, nor interested in the other.

Amazing and beautiful!

I saw something strange floating in the water.

Turns out it was a turtle. Yes, we returned him to the water and he floated away.

This local dog is a little upset because the pelican is too close to his owner's boat. So the goes dog paddling after him.

The outcome was obvious to all but the dog.

The pelican escaped with lots of room to spare.

If you look carefully between the boats you can see the stingrays on the ground.

The men are skinning them to sell the meat.
