Went "bird hunting" night before last and found a couple of active pelicans, here are a few from that shoot, if you check really close you'll see that one of these guys has several inches of fishing line caught in the upper portion of his beak, you can see it around his head - especially noticeable in the last photo. Check the download, especially the last one - shows the fishing line clearly flying in the breeze.
Poor bird appears to have fishing line caught in its mouth. How sad.

I like starting to move out most.
Great shots. I really like "grab a bite". Really good timing on that one.
Good captures, calliwa! I feel sooo sad when I see birds and dolphins and whales all caught up in fishing line! I'd love to help all of them! :(
