Description

Last week Michael Parkinson interviewed David Frost. This week the shoe is on the other foot as Frost interviews the amiable Yorkshire-man. ... One of his all-time favourite was Muhammad Ali aka Cassius Clay. What has this got to do with Pelicans, you may well ask ? This was my take on that interview with Muhammad, and the words ring so true: "I AM THE GREATEST ... physically and mentally, I am beautiful ... float like a butterfly - sting like a bee". (what a motormouth) This is worthy of a zoom - OUCH ! Cassius's beak nearly pierces the others beak ... Cheers *BB*

Ouch! Seeing the point on the end of the top beak of the other pelicans really makes me feel for the poor guy. Excellent image! I love the way the other pelicans are looking on too. The little guy on the right really seems to be egging them on, while many of the others appear to be above such shenanigans. Pelicans are so comical. I like the one to the left that is seen almost full face. Wonderful capture of so many and at just the right moment.

Wow. I love Pelicans. I found them in carribean islands but one or two at time. Here you have captured a crowded family. Great shot. Well done. Brava Brigitte

love your title, and the pic is really clear and vivid. A wonderful cream tone to their lighter feathers, and real music to the heads and bodies milling around and bobbing at each other. And I love the two birds shouting at each other---it looks like the left bird has poked his beak into the beak of the right bird (ouch! that's a lotta nerve!) You cropped it so the birds practically reach the top of the frame---brings us right into the action. Love this shot. And the brown of the ground makes a great harmony with the birds' brown. A must-see, full size...
