Pelican Flips Crawfish and Tadpole
This is an American white pelican, fishing with its buddies near the eastern boat ramp, at Cherry Creek State Park, Colorado. They were dipping over and over and seeming to catch something with every dip.
Algae has been unusually high in the lake this year. It's been a little stinky, BUT the water birds have been very active catching fish. When I look closely at this catch, I see a tadpole very near frog stage and a young crawfish.
