A bit late in the season a few weeks ago, but not bad. The pelicans were more skittish than during the peak of hte season. I was alone on the cliffs and they were not as tolerant as when there are dozens of photographers crowding the location. I am leaving on Saturday for a week of sailing and kayaking in the Galapagos, a dream, but with the kayaking, I am not sure how my photo gear will stand up or how much I will be able to carry. Since I haven't been posting much lately, no one should miss me. I hope to have lots to share on return.

Sweet shot. I really like how clear the eye can be seen, and the little movement in the feathers.. Nice!

Steve, great flight shot. It looks a bit on the green side, but could be me.
