Show Me A Photo Contest Round 47 - Birds in Black and White.
(Edited)
Pelican Birds have always been part of our family pets here on Byron Bay beach and on the other beaches close by us they come and go as they please we love them the kids love them and the Pelicans know that every local you will some locals either talking to them or walking along with them they know that us humans are not going to harm them, it is always a pleasure to see them on our beaches sitting around, bathing, swimming or just marching along the beach like a army battalion guarding our beaches.
)
They are quite a amazing and beautiful bird they are classed as one of the biggest water birds in the world having a long beak and a large throat pouch which is used for scooping up fish out of the ocean it's just amazing to see them in action there like a B52 bomber coming in for an attack.
)
)
Pelicans have a lifespan of up to 25 years and as a full matured adult can have a wingspan up to 3.5 meters that is one huge wingspan almost the size of a small jet it's a wonder they look so majestic when they are in flight.

And when these majestic birds have satisfied their bellies for the day and have had enough of interacting with humans and their cameras they go marching off again like a army battalion to their homes to feed their young ones.

What a splendid big bird to use in both black and white showcasing the colour, Pelican is such a majestic bird of which it appears you have a healthy bird colony where you live.
Excellent photography @kohsamui99
Thank you @joanstewart they are part of us on the bay and we love them hanging around 😊
We have to odd couple arrive on rivers, no where near the numbers you have there.
But you have a lot of other beautiful nature in replacement I would love to have a few monkeys running around on the beach @joanstewart 🤣
Monkeys will steal your lunch pack close to the beach, never actually seen them on the beaches, perhaps they scared of the sea.
Further down our coastline you will find cattle and dogs on the beaches, not close to where we live a region called the Transkei.
beautiful, enjoyed your post very much!
I find - maybe its a funny thing to say - but I find that black or black-and white birdies - like these herons, like magpies etc - in BW mode provide the best captures.... (the ones I prefer more in color are the pictures with birdies having a tender pink beak... their close-ups in b-w loose more than obtain. imo.)

Thank you and true in what you say @qwerrie their are some thing that just look more realistic in black and white and these birds are one of them...Cheers 👍
