Lydia Ann Channel Light 36151

With just a small part of what was a continuous flow of white pelicans leaving
St. Joseph (San José) Island and flying single file up Aransas Pass and the
Corpus Christi Ship Channel, heading apparently for their nighttime roost.

Photographed along the Gulf coast from Port Aransas, Texas, USA.
