The day after I took the Egret photos from last weeks blog post I went back to try and find the pelicans. Very happy I did. These photos were taken in the same settings as the last time, Manual mode, F11, ISO 800, handheld, playing around with shutter speed depending on the light.
Brown Pelicans, ducks in the background.
I think this is also a Brown Pelican. Doesn't look exactly like the first two but I guess there are variations.
Nice clear photo.
So pretty.
Blue Heron, he was in the sun and I only got a slight silhouette shot then he took off.
How lucky was this one? wow
American White Pelicans. They have been hanging out in Foster City for the last couple of weeks in large flocks. This (I assume) is a smaller group than what has been seen in the area recently.
They slowly move along dipping their heads in the water and coming up with their bills full.
Would have been a good reflection if not for the seagull stealing the shot.
If I had been in S Mode I think these action shots would have come out better.
Still pretty good photo. With this turning out so well its hard to really try with S Mode. I'm too afraid I'll end up with no photos.
Watch the mud slide off his feet in the next photo.
Going to a less crowded spot?
Nope, not less crowded.
So many birds, Blue Heron in the background with his head down, Black Necked Stilts and an Egret all behind the Pelican and Seagulls.
Another great set of flying pelican shots.
wow
Pelican on the far left has an itch...
Scratch must have felt good!
Happy Friday!!!
