Wordless Wednesday... late this time!

A friend and I went back to Beaufort NC for an overnight stay this week. (Have I ever mentioned that I'm grateful to live close enough to the beach to visit on the spur of the moment? Because I truly AM!) While there, I managed to catch a few shots of pelicans. Some of these are rather small on the computer screen, but if you click them, you'll get a larger image:
In for a landing

And takeoff

Here's something neat: notice the boat in the back?

I caught him pulling in a fish as the pelican continued on his way!

  6. The meeting place of sea and sky caught my eye!

    A MAN WHO LOOKED UP AT THE SKY

    A man who looked up at the sky
    Saw ravens and clouds flying by.
    He had to look up,
    The sky filled his cup—
    He’s my kind of sky-watching guy!

  8. Hello,

    I'm over from Shah's Weekend Hop. Pelicans are one of my favorite birds. I am partial to water species. I also like herons a lot. In Texas I see a lot of herons and ducks.

    Thank you for posting all the photo hops. I didn't even know one existed. I definitely will be checking some of these out as an excuse to hide behind my camera when I am not writing.

    Hope to see you on my blog this weekend.

    -Nora
