Description
Brown pelicans are very interesting and funny birds. The long beak and pouch give them a very comical appearance. Pelicans are one of the heaviest flying birds. They have amazing agility in flight... especially given their large wingspan... pelicans can grow to a wingspan of 10 feet or more. The shape of their wings is very steep and is emphasized by their length. Their jumps from heights are amazing considering their size. This photograph of a comically elegant brown pelican was taken in Florida.

Wonderful timing! I know he is coming in for the landing on the railing but my first thought was he looks like he/she is doing a tap dance in this photo. Congratulations on your photo of this Pelican being selected as an Administrator's Pick of the Week in the A Woman's Touch Group!
