Tight Turn

High Winds have created turbulent conditions along the coast.
A lot of Pelicans took this opportunity to go fishing this morning.
Note, this male is beginning to change colors for the mating season.
Photographed near La Jolla Cove.

A very nice capture. Looks like he's making some flight corrections. V

A stunning capture Walter! The details and the sharpness of the bird along with the position of flight is outstanding. V

The foamy ocean makes a very good back drop from this perspective/vantage.

A stellar shot! The surf (?) looks like whipped cream! The color and detail on the bird is beautiful. V

I saw the wind story on this morning's news! L.A. had a lot of problems. Hopefully, S.D. didn't have problems with power outages etc. This is a gorgeous picture, Walter. Really detailed and colorful. V
