Day 299.5 2015: Once there was swan's way...

Day 299.5: ...and then there is pelican's way

Yes indeed, dear reader, today is a 0.5 bonus day because, in fact there are 140 photos to choose from and I find it very difficult to choose sometimes. Like today. One of the pelicans was busy diving, preening, splashing about in the passage and ended up on the sand (mud) bank. 

Put on a show all of its own...worthy of its own gallery: 

Splish, splash I was taking a bath

Stre-e-e-e-t-c-h
And...down

Step up...

Taxi-ing

Bounce...

Lift off

Land (ouch, that mud is hot)

The Pelly-Can Dance

In a flap

dry those wings


Just a minute or two but so much pleasure in the viewing (unless it was in some discomfort...which I hope it wasn't).
