This Pelican carrying nesting material was caught at Rangana Thittu Bird Sanctuary in South India. Pelicans migrate to this place every year to raise the next generation and then return to their usual place of residence.

Technical: Canon 6D + Canon 100-400, ISO 400, F8, 1/512

Nice light and detail, Murali. I like the stick and the slight motion blur in the wings.

Really nice capture. The nest material makes it special.
