Another popular bird to photo in Florida is the Sandhill Crane. Like
the pelican, they're big and you can walk right up to them. They will
walk (not fly) away from you at a fast pace, though, so it can be hard
to get a face-on shot like this:

We get both the American White, and the Brown pelicans out here.
The Browns are interesting as they go through several color phases when in
breeding plumage. The American Whites, other than black wingtips with the
adults, not so much.
This is a not so shy, Brown Pelican.

The clarity and detail in your photographs is amazing! :-)

How far away from the birds were you when you took these photographs?
