A few I like

[Mira]

Sitting on a rock in the little bay where we swim, I climb on the rocks and inch as close as I can get


Going by just outside the buoy


This one is for reference about the rocks and the buoy


And some sailboats at rest

1. Really enjoying all of your photos, Mira.

You're sharing a terrific travelogue. And that close-up of the pelican is awesome! :hi:

2. That pelican looks as though...

...he almost trusts you! What an expression! Great job Mira!!!

[Celebration]

3. Absolutely LOVE

That pelican!! Perfect.

4. Coming from you, I blush with pride.

Whenever I (try) to shoot a photo of a bird, or birds, I ALWAYS think of you. And that's a fact.

6. Although I'm partial to

sailboats, I'm in agreement with above comments about your pelican! He's looking quite dignified!

And . . . I too am enjoying your photos.

7. First one immediately made me think of an episode of Nova

I saw recently, about the evolution of dinosaurs into birds.

Nice!
