Watching Pelicans over the Weekend

   We got a real treat over the weekend-watching the large white pelicans on the Lake in the Ozarks.

Saw singles fly by and then pairs over the weekend. Then late yesterday two large flocks of them. We watch them catch fish, one even went after a seagull 

 I found this video on Facebook from our conservation dept.

  Also found this photos online of the pelicans on Lake in the Ozarks


 

 Wen they fly you can see the black under their wings.

  Today was rainy in the morning but rest of our day has been cool, dreary and windy.

It has been a year since I have spent any time in my craft room. I have done a few things on the couch but not in my room. Needs a super good clean for sure.to rid the dust in there, but it felt good. I am setting myself up to make Thanksgiving cards to mail out to friends.  Will be something fun for me.

  Off to get up the steps and hill to check the  mail-it has gotten windy and quite cold out there now-feels like a cold fall day. we have been spoiled for sure.

  Happy Monday

  1. I have always wanted to see at least one pelican. How cool to be able to see them right from your house. Janice

    1. when we first moved to the lake had no idea I would see pelicans here. Over the weekend we watched them all day long-they must be getting ready to migrate out.

  4. It is so wonderful to watch them fly. They're like dinosaurs with wings and those beaks or are they bills? Well I suppose we all have bills. Kathy! Thanks for sharing honey
