Description
This pelican sitting on a pier on Marco Island, FL, extended his pouch when other pelicans arrived, as some sort of greeting. Notice the veins, also an interesting thing about pelicans is they predominantly breathe via their mouths, since their nostrils are clogged up by glands that can remove extra salt from the bloodstream. - 0707c

Congratulations on being named among ‘Dawn’s Delights’ this week. This image has that extra something special that makes it an extraordinary image. A unique point of view of a Brown Pelican with fabulous detail, almost an abstract quality to it!
