In the fall of the year, American White Pelicans migrate south through Kentucky Lake and what a thrill it is for a birdwatcher like me.
Maybe it is because of their huge wingspan . . .
or their long yellow bills with expandable throat pouches . . .
or even their orange feet . . .
Who knows the attraction to the American White Pelicans!
On Saturday, October 18, they came into Cypress Bay and very close to our boat docks. We weren't out in the boats looking for them as in the past. We were able to watch them dive for fish right from our dock.
You know I was snapping my camera as quick as I could.

Whatever it is that is so thrilling about the White Pelican migration, we always are on the lookout for them in the fall!

Beautiful - and so white! What I mostly see here in Florida are brown pelicans.
