All you girls who like to take photos I thought you might be interested in a photo swap. It is through a Flickr group called Scent of water photo swap.
Join up date is the 1st July it looks like fun.
Thought I'd share some snaps........ the pelicans down on the lake where all up on the bank having their morning clean when I got back from my walk.

Not that I can tell them apart but there is usually 6 or 7 pelicans there and this one is always there I often wondered what the tag was...... now I know.
I was a bit sad to see this
I rang an organisation who rescue injured water birds and they said they would try and catch him/her to remove the hook however it didn't seem to worry him.
They are really amazing don't you just love the colours in this bill.
and the little hook on the end.
Much cleaning is done

Great photos!
Your photos are amazing Leanne - as always! Pelicans always look so majestic.
Amazing looking birds ... and great photos of them!
Great Shots Leanne... The pelican's yellow eye is so vivid & the blue/grey lines on the beak.
Your Photo's always are so lovely! I like how it looks like the one fella is smiling!
Thanks!
As always...wonderful pictures Leanne!! Love them!
As usual I want to accompany you on your walk. These guys (gals?) are amazing. We saw pelicans on our trip, but I couldn't get close enough to get a good picture. You did such a great job capturing the beauty of these birds!
Sorry to see the fishing line on the one. But isn't it great that there is an organization that will try to help!
I think the eyes are wonderful. I can imagine that seeing expression would be hard though. Do birds have expressions? Hmmm?
Really nice. We have a lot of Hawks, and Eagles up the canyon and I love to see them. Such awesome wonders... makes me soo happy that we have these graceful birds and that they all don't need to be kept in a zoo in order to keep them around.
Really fantastic photos Leanne - could you post me some of those amazing pelicans please??? Lucy x
Thanks for looking in on me and saying hello*!*
Love these pelican photos .... made me sad too to see the fishing twine - people are so careless arghh!!
you take some great pictures, i think the eyes look like they are drawn on, that kind of not quite real look. Fishing twine..hmmm

Pelicans are such characters! Beautiful photography. You have captured them brilliantly.
Great photos Leanne. I love the one showing his beak - aren't they just amazing birds! I love watching pelicans at the beach.
Your Pelican shots are just amazing. I weep for the wildlife who die because of our selfish carelessness.
Those photos and the pelicans are amazing!
Sorry to see a hook in one of those beautiful creatures. Hope they can remove it!
It's sad to see the destruction careless people can do to not only our waterways but also the lives of those defenseless wildlife that live there. 'PICK UP YOUR RUBBISH' I say. I hope that fishing line and hook can be removed soon. Great photo's too. Jo x
I have never seen a pelican that close and that detailed. Thanks for sharing this!!

Pelicans must be the most photogenic birds! Beautiful pics as usual.
Your pics are wonderful......and the pelicans are perfect models!
About the breast-cancer I totally agree with you, we must go and make controls!

I love your wonderful pictures Leanne!!!!

Gorgeous photos - their faces look like they've been painted.
I hate fishing line - having rescued many a water bird in a previous job and seeing first hand the damage it can do.
