...Chris,We have two words for it, your 'Values' and his 'Trust'...(it might be a little too deep for some)...cheers

to bad them fish dont jump in the yak!! you mite be the next dr. dolittle? did yall talk to each other much??

Don't let him fool you, Tom Benson says that they are mighty fierce

He looks young, very cool

I think that is a good omen or karma what ever you want to call it , you were accepted as part of nature , did you threw him or her a trout -----

I'm wondering if it was a pelican that was impacted by the oil spill and had lots of human contact while being cleaned of the oil

Your good 'Buther , you must really be a zoo-ilogist or a pelican whisper ----- have you'll ever witness the pelicans flying in large single file formation then breaking off one by one diving into the water , a memerible site ----also like the way they catch the uplift of air caused by the Causeway and 11 Bridge and ride the rails and never flap a wing

The atmosphere you project. Chris must have a good one. I have a friend with a good one. He has a lizard and black bird come drink whiskey n coke on the porch swing with him. For true.

oh oh, the animal rights activists will be calling you about your friend!!

I bet he thinks you're his momma.

I agree with butcher. It was probably hand fed as well.

Fighting over old crab bait

All pelicans are hand fed this time of the year

Really cool pics, thanks for sharing I love it when the pelicans come near me when i'm surf fishing. Beautiful birds!

Man don't make friends or feed them nasty things. They will get use to people and you will get mad when the try to get a fish off your hook and hook themselves. They will follow you around and become a nusiance till you pick up and leave a spot where you are catching fish at. I repeat do not make friends with them or porpoise 'PLEASE'.

...first post I've seen were 'judgements' collides w/ 'emotions'...just don't do anything to hurt'em...cheers
