Last month we spent a few days in Kalbarri where the pelicans know the time of day. Every morning at precisely 8-45 they come up from the river to the grassed area where they know a fish or two will be on the menu for breakfast.

Wonderful shots! Haven't been to Kalbarri for years.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool experience, seeing the pelican up close.. Their bill and pouches are neat looking.. Great shots, Linley! Thank you so much for linking up, have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteOh my, what fun! They don't seem the least intimidated.
ReplyDeleteAmazing birds. I love the close ups!
ReplyDeleteI remember enjoying the pelican feeding when we were up in Kalbarri some years ago. No shade sails back then though so seems they've smartened the place up. Looks good.
ReplyDeleteFascinating! Do they know the time so precisely both during winter and summer?!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos! They are such handsome birds.
How awesome to see them so close up. They're big birds.
ReplyDeleteBeautifully captured LInley - they really are the most majestic birds either on water, land or in the air. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great performance!
ReplyDeleteA great series of shots telling a story. They are funny to watch feeding.
