Fins and Feathers

In the Fall when the Brown Pelicans are inshore, they know to hang out near the marinas and boat launches. There they can get an easy free meal after the fishermen discard the spoils of their day's catch.

 

It sure was entertaining to watch this juvenile Brown Pelican try to "down-the-hatch" this rather large redfish carcass.

Took him about 30 minutes....but finally succeeded.

You know what they say about your eyes being bigger than your stomach....

 

Thanks for taking a look & have a great day/evening
