DALMATIAN PELICAN 16/06/2016





Popped over to Point Quay at Devoran this morning overlooking Restronguet Creek, where the Dalmatian Pelican seems to have relocated from the west of the County.
This is the third attempt to try and get some decent images of this bird, arrived in thick fog,which started to lift after about 30 mins and located the Pelican quite a way out on the creek. I was using the 400mm lens with the 1x4 extender added still not the greatest of images but much better than any I got previously.
