For some reason this reminds me of a famous Raphael painting . . .

Uhhhhh! Is this actually three different birds, or is it one bird, three different positions, and stitched?

three different birds, no stitching, single capture - no Photoshop magic here, just the real thing!

Without your shooting data and a larger version, it's hard to offer much critique. You may have notice most of us don't include a label in our photos when we post, but instead use the subject field. It lets us get more the image in front of the audience...

Sweet photo Ian!!! I like the three different poses, with the sharply focused pelican perfectly placed in the middle of the pleasing composition.
