Where have all the White Pelicans gone.........? (Page 3): That is a lot of Pelicans! So, if there are 10,000 islands why do they all choose just one island? :sm02:...

Took a nice boat ride yesterday in search of White Pelicans and hit the mother lode on Chokoloskee Bay; It's that time of year, when we get visited by these beautiful Pelicans. Please enjoy the downloads and double clicks

Nice set Gregory.

I've seen the "whites" when they're gone. In the summer I have seen them breeding in/on the Slave River in the Canadian Northwest Territories. Great viewing of the river at Fort Smith on the edges of Wood Buffalo National Park. They don't dive to fish. They stick their open bills in the water and scoop out the fish on their way by.
