American White Pelican flyover

June 25, 2014 by Tony Leave a Comment

Another shot from the Colorado plains from last week.  This very large bird provided a great subject, especially with the clear, blue skies.  These birds are one of the biggest in North America with wingspans that can reach up to 10 feet across and lengths approaching 6 feet.  They can appear a bit gangly and awkward but are in fact beautiful fliers.  You can read more about them here: http://bit.ly/1nHibTT
