I could watch them all day - We're really going to add Goose Island to our itinerary the next time we head for the beach based on your wonderful fine-feathered friend captures. Great "getaway" action shot, Emile! #11009468

I really love the clarity of the picture Emile and how the colors and details are so bold and beautiful. He better hurry and eat that fish before it gets taken away from him. Exceptional work here my friend. #11009967

Emile, it amazes me how many different types of pelicans you have over there. We have just the one here, and he's white and black, similar to this one - but not the same. Great capture! #11012086

Thanks Debbie. #11012149
