This is my 38thMisty Dawn started the meme and explains the rules here.
in an RV with her husband) as we walked out on the Huntington Beach pier, I took these pelican photos
with my new toy, using the 18-55mm lens. We also
saw dolphin, seal, and a whale ... but methinks I
need a telephoto lens to capture better shots of
those critters, even from the pier.
Thought for Today
"A wonderful bird is the pelican
His bill will hold more than his belican.
He can take in his beak
Food enough for a week,
But I'm darned if I see how the helican."

Nice pictures and nice camera, Virginia. I just have a cheap camera, but it seems to take good pictures.
Have a good week.
Nice collage, i never realized just how big those beaks are
I like the collage/tiled idea. Very clever! :-)
