"An unmistakable bird of coastal waters. Groups of Brown Pelicans fly low over the waves in single file, flapping and gliding in unison. Their feeding behavior is spectacular, as they plunge headlong into the water in pursuit of fish. The current abundance of this species in the United States represents a success story for conservationists, who succeeded in halting the use of DDT and other persistent pesticides here; as recently as the early 1970s, the Brown Pelican was seriously endangered."

Wide Open Spaces in Tolowa Dunes State Park by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: A setting looking to the north while walking along the Pacific Ocean coastline in Tolowa Dunes State Park. The overcast skies and off and on drizzle helped to create what I felt was a minimalist feel to the image captured.

California Brown Pelicans (Pelecanus occidentalis californicus)

Taken at Leo Carrillo State Beach

Status: not extinct

These beautiful pelicans are going into their stunning breeding plumage for the season! You can see the difference in how bright/contrasty the more mature bird’s (left one) feather colors are compared to the immature individual on the right.
