Potpourri

I liked the following pictures I took today. It's a little bit of this and a little bit of that. I really, really like my new camera.






There's so much more detail and the new camera allows me to track the brown pelicans much better.








It also allows me to capture other fast flying objects such as this HueyChinook helicopter. I'm good at identifying birds not helicopters! Thanks steveH!








I haven't taken very many pictures indoors but I loved the costume this couple wore at the Purim celebration. They came as a blue roof. Purim is a fun holiday. There was a great deal of laughter as rattles and boos sounded forth at the cursed Haman's name.

A graet shot of the pelican!
Our pelicans have different coloring.

felis,

That is a Louisiana brown pelican. They were on the endangered species list in the 1970's and have made a big comeback.

Nice pelican shot.

The helicopter, sadly, isn't a Huey.

It's a CH-47 "Chinook". Which could carry a big lot of pelicans, were they inclined to take it easy for a while.

Ain't digital cameras fun, though?

Thanks fro the compliment and the correction! And yes, it could carry bunches of pelicans! Digital cameras are a lot of fun.
