Jackpot

I saw hundreds of Pelicans during my morning walk from La Jolla Cove to Horseshoe this morning.
For some reason the Pelicans are very plentiful this year, and are active later in the year than usual.

I saw a spot on the news about the Pelicans and the mess they are making. But they didn't say anything about why so many this time.

I love seeing pelicans flying in formation. They remind me of aerobatic teams. Great sighting and nicely cropped. V
