These birds look a lot cleaner than our Aussie white Pelicans Emile! They still seem to have the same appetite though! #11008233JO ANN CLEVELAND March 25, 2014

Whoa, nice capture, Emile. That pelican has a big bill, but this fish may be almost too big even for that. #11008788frank w. degenhardt March 26, 2014
You got yourself an awesome shot her Emile. This is fantastic. I love the clarity of the picture, their white against the blue of the water. Perfect timing in catching someone who will not be hungry later. Perfect in all way my friend. #11008841Emile Abbott March 26, 2014
