20th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Wings and water
In this shot you get extensive definition of the pelican's wings, while you can see how their feet are shedding water as they rise up. You can only see the tip of the bird's beak, just enough to secure the definition as a brown pelican; but I am in awe of how you vcan see the different types of feather, all in action
