I haven't even gotten the camera out of the closet for a couple of months. The last post I had was in the June time frame, and was of Brown Pelicans, in Virginia. This weekend I got the camera out, and headed for the Washington State coast. I found excellent October weather, seriously 67 degrees, and sunny. I also found one of my favorite species, the Brown Pelican! The light in the afternoon was just awesome!
