Pelican

When walking along the beach in Tamarindo and Langosta, it is common to see pelicans flying along the beach, either one at a time or a flock.

Most of the photos are similar to this one.  By the time I see the pelican, then turn my camera on, take off the lens cap, point it in the right direction, focus and shoot, the pelican has flown past and is heading away, such as in this photo.

We have new photos of Ireland posted on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site this week.  We are showing photos of Galway and the Cliffs of Moher.

    This is a nice shot with that sky and the pelican zooming past.

    They are so uncooperative. In any event, pelicans are delightfully bizarre. We once stayed at the Three Pelicans Hotel in Prague.

    Always love watching pelicans, and the one in your photo is really soaring!
