pelicans!

I have always loved pelicans. I love their grace in the air and the rhythm of their flap-flap-flap-glide formations as they fly in the lift above the cresting waves. Florida has given me opportunities to see lots of Brown Pelicans up close. 

These stowaways sat on the front of our airboat before we left the marina. What a kick!

They are funny, aren't they? And kind of clumsy too!
