American White Pelican (Pelecanus erythrorhynchos)

This photo was taken at a pond on the north end of Big Talbot Island State Park known locally as "Spoonbill Pond". I went there specifically to get some shots of these guys and the Roseate Spoonbills. These birds are the second largest in the U.S. with an 8-9 foot wing span.
