Day 216 2015: Where do pelicans go...

Day 216: ...at night?

I found out. Standing in the car park at work at 9.30 at night after a long day. At 9.30pm and still no project365 photo, it is a sad thing. 

I thought I'd give the ibis island a bit of a long shot, long exposure, try-out. There was a bit of ambient light coming from the campus...

...and then I heard the sound of flapping wings, splashing water and to my right...the pelican landed and perched on the buoy in the middle of the lake.

The place where pelicans sleep at night
Wrong lens but worth a capture nonetheless.

And that's where pelicans sleep, at night.
