American White Pelicans stage on the St. Louis River of Fond du Lac, Duluth MInnesota every spring from late April through mid May. Their antics are entertaining! They glide on 9-foot wingspans (second widest in North America!) over the hilly landscape and perform surprisingly graceful "waterski" landings. My favorite is their bill stretching exercises...and I have several clips of this. One catches a fish that is nearly too big to swallow.
Need a creative jumpstart to your wildlife photography? In this video I try and backlight the pelicans pouch and create a "stained glass" effect. I also share other backlighting wildlife photography tips.
