These guys just look like they are up to something. This group of American White Pelicans was hanging out on the banks of the snake river in Grand Teton National Park and photographed as we floated by in our kayaks.

These guys and gals get around – they visit us in the winter here in SW Florida.

Hi they do and that is what amazes me. To me they see like they belong on the coast and in the ocean not on a a river in the Teton. Probably just associated Pelicans with the ocean young in life and it just stuck with me. Hope your week is off to a great start.

And they congregate, too, on Lake Eyre when it’s in flood, or any other wetlands in the Australian, often very dr,y outback regions. I think the one on the left looks to be the ringleader, by that look in his/her eye!

He/she one the left probably gives the directions but never gets in trouble. Hope your day is going well.

Doesn’t kayaking allow you to see wonderful things regular boating doesn’t? I love the quiet too!

Hi Marsha, it is fun to be able to get to see things from the boat that I would never have otherwise seen and to be able to get a new perspective looking from the water to the shore is really something wonderful. Hope your day is going well and your week ahead is full of fun.

They look like they are muttering under their breath – probably not saying nice things about those ‘no-feathers’ floating by. 😉

I concur, we were probably the focus of their ire that afternoon.
