While I was at Farmington Bay WMA, a group of American White pelicans in the back area below the GBH condos caught my eye and I took their photo. I then saw one of them lift off and fly directly at me. I hit the "hot" setting on my A9 and the Sony 100-400mm lens with 1.4 tc did the rest. Out of the almost 40 photos, I indulged myself with posting the various angles and wing positions, unlike the usual "butt bird" shots I produce.

Comments and suggestions are welcome.

Thanks, Frank. I understand that is a mating bump that disappears after the mating season is over.
