Upde Designs

Happy Wednesday!

I have three images for you today and while they are not images of eagles they are big birds that fly and are fun to watch.  There always seems to be a lot of pelicans at LD #14.  There was only one when I first arrived and he would start by the lock door and float / swim up past the observation platform and then turn around and go back.

More pelicans came as time wore on and soon there were a half-dozen all fishing in the calm water.

Every once in a while I would notice one of their heads go underwater and he would come up with a fish in his mouth, which quickly disappeared down his throat.  I was never fast enough to capture that moment even though I followed one with my lens for several minutes.

Two of them came in about the same time and did a simultaneous landing.  Like two jets landing on the same runway.  🙂

That’s it for today.  Thanks for stopping by the blog.  Enjoy your day and be careful.
