American White Pelican

We recently visited the Suncoast Seabird Sanctuary on Florida's Gulf Coast. I wanted to get some close-up reference photos of seabirds. There was one area with some White Pelicans which I had never seen before. In the back corner of their enclosure there was a nest with babies! I couldn't zoom in close enough for a good photo...but I did get some of this juvenile pelican. He already has that pelican attitude!
