Christmas morning treat
Snow came in the form of white pelicans. . .quite rare here.
Actually it was a complicated choreography. . .anhingas, diving and popping up, led the dance, followed by the white pelicans, relaxed and regal, dipping their beaks in the water while the browns launched and wheeled and dive-bombed the surface in small and large groups, highlighted by gulls above and the audience of herons and storks (hadn't seen them behind the house before. . .)and egrets completed the tableau. It was an amazing gift.
Almost full moon, solstice and wind brought us really low early morning tides to tempt this party in for the feast.
