DavidTriplett Posted October 4, 2019 Author Share Posted October 4, 2019 I love the double entendre in "range"!;) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShunCheung Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 And flying better formation, too! :p:D David, I captured that image last Saturday (September 28). My wife and I were scheduled to go on a whale-watching cruise in Monterey Bay, California, but it was really windy that day and the cruise was cancelled in the last minute. Since we were already there, we went to near-by Point Lobos, and the pelicans had a great time flying with the strong wind. There were hundreds of them so that I had plenty of pictures to choose from. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidTriplett Posted October 4, 2019 Author Share Posted October 4, 2019 David, I captured that image last Saturday (September 28). Sounds like a wonderful outing, even without the whales! We're actively looking for our last outing before winter sets in, with the Coast having a high priority. Happy trails... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
