MS these photos are gorgeous...the water shots amazing!!
I've never seen a pelican up close and personal. Is he really missing a wing or is it hidden?

Oh, poor pelican, but what spectacular photos, Sandra!!

It is a testament to the ability to adapt. A lesser person would whine and moan, not being grateful that they can swim.

Poor pelican, great shots! He is beautiful.

Oh no, how can he survive? Obviously he cannot fly. Have you seen him more than once? Wonder what happened? Your shots are wonderful, especially of his face and eyes. Poor thing...

Now that's amazing! He appears to be able to do "pelican stuff." And survive.
